Wanted L114

Post by Flyfisher »

Hi all,
I'm looking for a male and a female, ideally 6-7" but larger considered.
I know the pattern and fins can vary alot, so I'll apologise now if I end up being a little fussy :-)
Has anyone got a fish or two to sell?
Or know of decent sized stock in any shops?
Many thanks
Gavin

Pier Aquatics in Wigan has just had a shipment of leopardus / "L600". They've also got L025, L273. Give Neil a ring, he might also have L114.

Well, after much research and phoning around, I bought 2 young fish from my LFS.
I'm fairly sure they're L114 but obviously at this size 3-4", I'm totally unsure of their sex. The shop had others in the tank that looked very different.
Gorgeous little fellas though, and they're in my 5ft 720L community tank, so I'll probably not see them for a year or two now lol

Hey, the sun came out this weekend. So it's almost compulsory to dig out a Hawaiian shirt ok :-)

It will be interesting to see the growth rate of these wee fellas. Everything else has grown really fast in this tank.

I caught a look at the largest Ancistrus Claro today and he's huge! With a very impressive hairy nose on him :-)

You know something..... I now have more catfish than cichlids! :-O

It's funny how that happens...I do keep a few cichlids around though, to clean up after my catfish :d

Nice looking dueo. I hope they are a pair. They should grow out fast from that size.
