Hi everyone. Within the next few months, I will be attempting to breed my clown pleco's. I've read the article here, but am looking for personal success stories and methods.
I hope someone can help out. Thanks

Thanks Yann, that would be appreciated.
does anyone know if the have to be a specific size/age before breeding? I have no idea how old mine are, but the first 4 I got are about 2" maybe a little more. The second set of 4 I just recently purchase are a bit smaller.
Thanks everyone

Hi
You might have a look at "Gelungene Zucht einer kleinen Panaque-Art" by Erik Schiller:

The article "Beim Exporteur in Brasilien" by Hans-Georg Evers also looks very interesting.
Of course the articles are written in German

It's a really nice catfish from the deepest amazon rivers, it knows several languages and is just all over a great fish
