Title: Auction tomorrow!
Post by: BallAquatics on March 22, 2013, 01:48:44 PM
I'm going down to the Greater Cincinnati Aquarium Society spring auction tomorrow.  I don't imagine that they will have any really cool Danios so I thought I'd shop for some Plecos.

If you could have a breeding group of any type Pleco, what would you want???  I've been looking at all the L-Numbers over at Planet Catfish and have picked out a few favorites, but I though it would be interesting to see what everyone else would pick.

Jon, do you mean the Super Red bristlenose, or the L025 Super Red Scarlet Pleco???

The one shown. I think it's called a galaxy loosely. I like that one. Long finned SR Bn's. The chocolate calicos Gibbs had on AB were nice. My mouse misfunctioned and I could not avert the sniper. #%$@##$$ 'er. He hee. BLNT. I have Green tigers I hope those will do well and LF polka dots, I'll have LF Red and cream marble calicos at the swaps. I think I would stay away from the Zebras because I see the market crashing on me as soon as I get some. Might be getting tough to get some of the undescribed L cats with the Brazilians closing it down and now our guys getting weird too. I have to look into some. I like them all too.

Here is a pic of my L201 I'm sure that it's a female. Males have more pronounced odontodes on the  pectoral fin. Females are wider around the middle of the body. I got My L201 over a year ago and they were less than a inch long. It takes a long time to grow them to breeding age. Now I want to find a mature male.
I think I'm with Frank about the Zebras. Plus they cost way more than I want to spend.
