I'm not sure about the striped ones. But I believe my spotted ones lay their eggs inside a hole in the driftwood. One of the parents will cover the entrance for what seems like a couple months not even coming out to feed. When it finally leaves the hole I will usually find a few new babies hiding in ...

There was some kind of temporary ban on some plecos earlier in the year. If I remember right it ended a couple months ago and L-134's L-14's etc are back on Brazillian exporter stock lists.

Thanks for clearing that up. I just started breeding syno's and am planning on getting more so trying to learn as much as I can.

I'm a bit confused ..Are you using the humeral process to determine the sex of the fish or to determine what species they are ?

It is a bizzare relationship for sure. The Corys poke around his gills and back mostly and the cuda stays perfectly still. I always keep one or two Cichlids in the tank for the cuda to eat and in almost 4 months now he has never eaten one of the Corys.

I keep 40 Corydorus swartzi with my Barracuda and I often observe the corys grooming him. I wish I could get a pic when 2-3 are sitting on his back .

I have had these for 4 or 5 years, but can't remember what they were bought as.I recently added a breeding cave to their tank , so now am curious if they are petricola or lucipinnis ?

So you don't feed your fish NLS? Soybean meal was in every formula that I bothered looking up. As you have stated repeatedly I am real good at google. That is priceless!![/quote]

I just checked the ingredients on my buckets, it states soybean isolates not meal. Are they the same thing?[/quote]

No ...

I would also not feed my fish any food that contained soybean meal, period.

This sounds like quite a slow death to me.

Which one ? The Hoplias aimara or the freezer.

Are these your fish and pictures ? Or are you just playing around again ?

Hello,

The pleco in the pic was sold to me as L255, the spotted Medusa pleco. However after a quick photo comparison, i'm not even sure if it is in the Ancistrus genus!

Can anyone help me identify this fish?

Thank you very much!

stock list has been updated

It was Janne that said this on a thread somewhere, L46 have allways been and still are on the banned list !

L-46 are not on a banned list ... they are not on the allowed list

I have to say I'm a bit dissapointed .... was expecting a pic of a near albino L-600

todda wrote:can you get LDA 008??

I can't recall seeing these on any stocklists - They are not on Brazil's allowed to export list.

Sorry we have none. I have never seen L-144 on any stock lists

I sorted those fish out. It was easy to pick out the 2 males, for the 4 females you wanted I went on stomach color and narrower head shape. Not an exact science but hopefully close.

Good to see the master back --

This might help.

I feed all small to medium size carnivorous plecos with NLS thera+A grow size pellets, they suck em up like smarties.

Thank you very much. The Ageneiosus sp. are appox 5 -6 cm SL . I will send you a Pm Daniel.

All these came in ---no markings on bags or boxes. Invoice just had common local names but not sure to which they apply. All from Peru.
