Now that you've pointed that out...I have noticed. I LOVE plecos too...hence why we have the snowball, clown, blue panaque and blue phantom plus all the bristlenoses.
I'd love to have our pond set up again with all the plecos in it or a huge planted with all kind of fancy plecos.

Allie

It doesn't look big too me?

Shawnie

He's so beautiful!!

My lfs had a couple and I wanted one badly, but my tank isn't big enough.

Allie

Thanks...I am pretty sure he is a HE too.
They get around 7".

Butterfly

So he is one of the ones that grow slowly ? Does he rasp on wood, eat algae or just look pretty

He doesn't seem to go near wood, but algae yes. I have seen him go after fish flakes too. He is a pretty aggressive pleco.
Here's his profile:

He's a great looking fish!
I love plecos, but like Barbrella, my tanks aren't big enough either.

MissMTS

What a beauty! I love plecos too I only wish that I had room for more of them....

Barbrella

Allie, did you get him from a private breeder? The ones in my lfs are about 3 - 4" long. At 1", he must have been just too cute! These fish are even more beautiful in person!!
