Those are both really cool plecos  I'm looking forward to my Queen Arabesque in the new year, even though it'll be very expensive..
Here is a photo I took today of Yuri eating some courgette, flanked by his attendant Bolivian rams.
And another one; I just love the expression on the ram's face!

Bill, once again, your photos are ace! Keep posting, mate, and well done on the QA. I am soooo close to getting one myself. I love them. They're so pretty!
Here's a shot of my orange-spot pleco fighting my mollies for a space on the cucumber slice.

Here is a closeup of my new bristlenose, my first one. This photo was taken about 2 hours after his release into my tank. He was pretty stressed apparently and it shows in his altered color.
He has since regained his nice dark brown coloration and is occassionally venturing out of his hiding place to explore the rest of the tank.

He seems to be doing better now. He's out exploring, even in the light. Seems when he isn't hiding he likes attaching to the front glass on the same side as the filter.
From what I have read on Planetcatfish his position in the tank makes sense as they like the water flow. And I saw that some plecos change colors like a chameleon to react to stress or surroundings. (Amazing what I can learn when I read  ) He is changing fairly often. When he is in hiding he is dark brown and out - light brown with a pattern.
Hope you like the photos.

Everyone's pics are just gorgeous. Hope you will keep them coming.
Here's my Rio Ucayali, posing nicely for once and showing the weird soccer ball pattern on his head.

I love your Rio also, his head so unique and fun.
I must admit, I got a clown pleco 2 weeks ago, and I think I am going to be a pleco-aholic......My guy Morley is always skipping around the tank, comes out at feeding time, and tonight he came out and scooped up a big piece of Omega \One flake that hit the bottom. I can't stop watching him!

My new BN Pleco that we picked up today. It is about 5 inches long and pretty big. I have another that is around 3.5 inches but its hiding right now and cannot get a good photo yet. It blends in with the driftwood.
What do you think? will it do the job on my algae?
