So I am always looking for a deal ... as i am sure we all are ... I was checking out fish tanks on craigslist ... it had been a couple of weeks so i started at the bottom about7 days ago and worked my way up ... well i kept seeing a 55 gallon tank with wood stand in the same section of town i am in ... It was a because they were moving so the price kept slowly dropping so thursday they had dropped to $100 I dropped them an email told them i had $60 that i could spend ... they emailed me said i had to get it Saturday morning ... so it needs some TLC but i got it for $60 and they asked if i wanted the sucker fish other wise they were going to let him go in the pond so site unseen i said yes well he is 13"
ok that is what i thought .,. just wanted conformation i would never let this beauty go ... and even though this is a common pleco i think he looks wonderful in my tank .... except he poops way more than the other fish in there and it is light colored sand so you can see it well guess i will not only picking up my dogs poop, but the plecos too ... lol
I am amazed by the beauty of this specimen! the pattern even runs through along the sides of his suckermouth, something I have never seen before in pardalis or disjunctivus.
60 dollars is a lot of money for such a fish, but at least you got a real beauty! and these fish have loads of personality, enjoy!

I thought the same thing until I reread it, but he got a tank 55 gallon tank for $60 and the fish came free.
Yeah, common, or not, it's beautiful! So it's either an expensive fish with a free tank or an inexpensive tank with a free fish! (which is what he got) LOL!
