Alright normally I would concur with everyones statements about ancistrus not being aggressive blah blah and whatnot; but first off the fish's scales are all GONE! Its only two fish in a 7 or 8 gallon area one of them a suckermouthed fish and the other a cichlid that has its scales completely (yes ...

The electric was still alive the following morning. Granted this is a big bushy @ 4.5". The sump is a 150G Wet/dry so theres fairly a good bit of room to move around. Whatever the reason it happened Im just lettin others know and that I wont ever be doin somthin like that again.

Bad suckie fish, BAADD!

I put my friends electric blue in my sump where my bushynose resides to keep the muck in suspension (might I add it has gotten hella fat too down there). I guess fish scales and slime were a very tasty alternative as it had eaten off both completely and Im left with a dead electric blue. Just ...

Its very similar but not quite unless it has different color patterns at diff life times. Except for the spots, the rest matches. Ill have to retake a pic.....that is whenever I see it again! It has a definite web pattern over it, but definitely no spots. Ill search around and see if I can find it...

It is slate grey, not black like an Iriri. Has a sort of lace or web pattern over the body. You can sort of see it. also the trim is actually orange orange. not goldish like an Iriri

Most peculiar thing I find of it, is that out of the 100 or so Goldies Ive seen throughout my life, this one shines out. Guess why its called Sunshine too :lol:

Ever heard of a yellow regal pleco?

Saw one at my friends shop the other day. Appears to be a goldie but with prolly twice the amount of spots making it almost totally yellow; has no listed L # that he can pull up. I thought it was just a goldie with unusual amount of spotting but wanted to see who else there has prolly seen one.
