hello all -
I'm located in Los Angeles area of California - around 2 miles from the ocean (can see it from the backyard).
I've been accessing the planet for a couple years now -- a great source of info and specs on the many cats.
I've been interested in plecos since started fish keeping 5 years ago. I started with a fish only tank 5 years ago. I often caught myself gazing at our good-sized sailfin pleco. Either I was hypnotized by his stoic expression or he was communicating to me - "hey, what's up wiht you?"
I've graduated to two planted aquariums 75 and 40 gallons and have joined a planted tank club, Souther California Aquatic Plant Enthusiasts,
http://scapeclub.org. I'm more interested in dwarf plecos to add to my 40 gallon tank. I wish there were more sellers of plecos somewhat local to me.
Does anyone else feel odd having a fish shipped hundreds of miles? I think of the little guy or gal being tumbled around in the darkness (maybe its only me).
Glad to be here and looking forward to learning more about these beautiful fish!
Tom
