Title: Hey Willie.... L 340
Post by: Mugwump on September 01, 2017, 01:12:47 PM
..Willie sent me some of his L 340 mega clown pleco fry quite a while back.....he said they were hermits and didn't show themselves very often...or at all...LOL..

....haven't seen but one....maybe in 6 mos.....I had tossed them all in the 30 breeder to let them grow......they only get about 3" anyway.....

..this morn'n as I was doing fry water changes on all the angel fry tanks, Jan came down and asked if I wanted any help.......I had a half tub of water left so said sure...while I'm filling...drain the 'swamp' and we'll move the albino long fin cories....there was also a nice L144 LF in there that I wanted in the 55 with the others......well lo and behold....she says what about this little darker one?
....I'm thinking....geez only one survivor?...can't be....well....she found all (6) of the fat little devils....LOL....ranging from 2"+..to 3".....sweeeeeeeet.....moved em all over to a nice 55 with angel fry that has lots of hiding places.........but.......when I had finished filling all the tanks, I went over to admire them........can't find a freak'n one of 'em.......LOLOLOLOL

...made my day, I needed that.........................thanks again Willie  ;)

Your welcome. Yes they surely do hide well. They like the caves & driftwood. They top out at 3 inches so you may have them breeding soon.
