It's Wednesday afternoon, and to me that's as good a time as any for a pleco picture thread.

If I had my tank set up, I'd start the action - but alas, I don't yet own a pleco, so I'm looking to you, my colleagues, to start the ball rolling...

So, show 'em off!

Blue Panaque, sorry she is very shy. I was lucky to be able to get this shot.

Female L110 red spot BN, excuse the red gravel. These guys don't show the red spots unless they have red in the tank.

I WANT THAT L134!! >:3
I'm sorry Pure, but I believe my L200 is prettier than yours... but that young Queen is stunning o.o I wish mine would come out... she hides in her PVC tube all the time...

I'll post some pics if I can manage to get some...

They are a black water species of BN. Pretty tame but males will defend their caves. Low PH and soft water is needed for this particular fish to stay healthy.

Worth the effort IMO.
