Thanks... I got some nice shots at yesterday's feeding frenzy... hopefully I can get some more today or tomorrow and it might change again, those sword roots are really distracting LOL.

Sheeze, those guys must have blown a hole in your wallet.
nope, i bought 10 zebras about 2 years ago at around 700.00 I rised them to adults, sexed them now I have 3 pair, I sold the other 4 (2 males and 2 females) for 1600.00. now these zebras give me a spawn every month. i never would have belived that buying and selling fish could pay for my school. unreal.

Nice Jeff, that's a nice flash. Nice trailers already! I was thinking about you this morning while watching my flash cruise the tank. :)

Astrals, sounds like you got an awesome deal, wish I had the money to get some! LOL

Hey Pure, what kind of pleco is the third one on your first post? The brown one (L001). I have one just like that and have been trying to do research on him but don't know his real name. Mine is huge! He's about 7 inches long.
It's an L226 tiger, they are panaques there are several species that look alike, one beeing an L002.

Use this to see if you can ID yours PlanetCatfish::Cat-eLog::Common Names

L114 Leopard Cactus Pleco

Some updated shots from yesterday & today:
(sorry about the focus on the first pic :eek: )






While I'm posting pics of him, just a quick question...
I'm beginning to think that mine's a really slow-grower...he's only grown maybe an inch (if that) since I got him back in early April. Planet Catfish site says 9" for these guys, so I expected him to be bigger by now. Is mine supposed to be growing this slowly, or do I need to be doing something differently?
