Very Nice. :thumbsup: I have been unsuccessful so far in breeding these guys. What water parameters did you spawn them in? Anything special your feeding them?

I wouldn't have figured they would spawn at that size yet.

Good luck on raising the fry!!!

Do you mean H. Contradens by "small snowbal" or do you mean LDA33??
Every great achievement begins with a dream ;-)

Very nice pictures. Good luck with the spawning, he's a very handsome pleco.
I haven't met too many plecos I didn't like...

Given the size, I'd expect Hypancistrus (L201 or contradens, I think).

It´s not. L 201 or H. contradens.

Did I mention that I don´t like those common names? :d
