Yep, that's the plan. I wanted to stay with the Hypancistrus family for a reason. She just didn't seem to be eating the first couple of days. She was probably vey stressed by the shipping. My L-316 eats anything and everything (mostly carnivore stuff). I figure my Queen wil do the same....and she is ...

Excellent replies! Thank you guys! I think you were right Matt, she seems to have started eating now. I've noticed that her little belly is fat in the morning these last couple of days. I just drop in a different kind of food near her each night. Last night, it was Wardley's shrimp pellets. She ...

Feeding a Queen Arabesque pl*co

I just purchased a Queen Arabesque pl*co for my 55 gallon tank and I was wondering what to feed her. I have offered sinking carnivore pellets and sinking spirulina tablets...all after lights out, and I haven't noticed her eating them. I do see her come out and graze the glass (which does have algae ...

Need definitive i.d. is it L-129 or L-318??

Okay, I bought a "scribble pleco" a while back that was listed as L-129, but I've had a knowledgeable person on another site tell me that it looks more like a L-318. Can anyone verify this i.d.? I know it's a hypancistrus, but what L number and does it matter anyway????

P/S: Here is a link to a ...

I've already cooled the tank down to the same temprature that the breeder has them in (75 degrees) and my tank has two filters and a dual outflow airpump. I'm mainly concerned over territory issues.

Hillstream loach/pleco compatibility

I have a 5" common pleco in my 30 that is going to be moved to a much larger (70 gal.) tank in January. In the meantime, I'm getting 2 1" hillstream loaches next week sometime that I bid for on aquabid. Will they be okay in the tank with my pleco or will he do something to them? He doesn't bother ...
