I read that last night also, I will take 4, seeing how they only get 4" I have a 55 gallon tank I can put them in.
Yes this is a joke.

25 years as a hobbyist first tank was a 30 gallon.

I think it is an LDA-25 they are very variable in color and pattern

My LFS ordered one for me and it was $15.00

Marelius did you read that L183 is a blackwater fish?

All I want to say is, God bless Planet Catfish and all the people involved with it! It is by far the most informative catfish site on the web period! Keep up the good work.

They eat like pigs, no symptoms, no unusual behavior, just them in the tank, no treatments, not sure on the import.

I am finding dead LDA-25`S everyday,I have had them for 4 to 5 weeks. There are no apparent reason for the deaths. Tank conditions, Ammonia 0 ppm Nitrite 0 ppm Nitrate 2 to 4 ppm temp 79. bi-weekly water change 30-40%. Does anyone have any ideas?

I agree with suezbele, LDA-25 or you could go a little larger with LDA-08

I know of one very large wholesale fish distributor that uses large concrete tubs to keep and breed some of there fish in. I also have a very good friend here where I live that also uses large Rubbermaid containers to breed some of his fish. I also know of someone that used horse troughs to breed ...

I read on another web site that a guy feed his Royals Rabbit Pellets! Has anyone heard of this? Well I was at my LPS and bought $0.30 worth of it just to see what would happen. When I got home I put a few pellets in a small container of water, and it fell apart almost instantly. He must enjoy ...

As I have told you before the tank is a 20 long bare bottom with 3" clay pots & saucers as caves, a couple of pieces of driftwood Penguin Bio-Wheel, 4 airstones. Tap water very hard Ammonia 0 Nitrite 0 Nitrate between 0-5.0 from the tap, Temp 80. 40% water change Bi-Weekly. I simulate a rainy season ...

Any home improvement store should have what you are looking for in the garden department.

L 182 ?

enamel I belief

I think you missed the question Don, it has nothing to do with how many they can keep, they are wanting to know what color gravel to use to highlight the plecos. I think I would go with gray if you can find any.

Check out aquabid.com there seems to always be BN on there for sale.

I currently breed Pl*cos and I am considering trying my hand at Corydoras, And I am looking for some advice on a few different Corydoras that you would recommend for me to get my feet wet! pun intended. hahaha

This is on AuqaBid

It was less than $5.00 for it!

I just wish that I could find some more, the LFS that I got it from is closing and they are not ordering anymore fish, plus it was labeled as a clown to boot. Also Datz has them listed under the Genus Ancistomus.

I just picked up 12 LDA-25 "Pitbulls" yesterday, they have so much personality, they are out playing around in the tank all day, even with a very bright light on them. I also picked up 4 L-015 and 1 unknow.

Just picked up 2 L-028`s about 4 inch's TL, to add to my collection hopefully I got a M/F I will post pics. later for help with sexing.

Yes it is an L-260

One of my LFS has what they claim to be an L-128 it is 2.5" to 3" but it dose not have any spots, do they have spots at that size? They also have a very nice looking L-200 that is 4.5" in the same tank.
Thanks for your input.

Yes it is a 260 not a 066

I belive that it is a l-260. Datz " The recently discovered population from Santarem has broader,brighty yellow bars."

What is it made out of? Anyone?

I know it has nothing to do with catfish but he wants to see big tanks so this is my 300 gallon reef
