Breeding L190 Royal Pleco (Panaque nigrolineatus)

"Dry and Rainy Seasons in the Tank"
I crossed a translation of this article in my Israeli forum (http://www.ffil.org) from Aquarticles site. http://www.aquarticles.com/articles/bre ... asons.html
I might want to try it in my aquarium, if some one can refer to this article from experience I will be thankful.
Any other advice on breeding Royal will be gladly acceptable.

i think that panawues are quite hard to breed, bec of the fact that there big! a pair or a colony must be placed in a suitable habitat where in they will happy live.. I guess that every thing is possible its just difficult! I know they need strong curents.. and a good vegi diet

Guya,
Thanks for bringing this to my attention. This article, with a few modifications, is lifted from a series of e-mails I wrote on Cat-L in 1996 after Doug Underwood used my technique to spawn P. nigrolineatus. I'll contact the website and let them know it was plagerized.

To bread Panaque Nigrolineatus isent that difficult (i think). I think i know how to bread them. I Can show you how to do it when im finishing breading them , but first i need about 5 PN.

Guya,
I'll look around and contact Lyn and see if they are still saved in the Cat-L archives. I believe that Dinyar, Heok Hee, and maybe Jools will remember the articles.
