L260, Queen Arabesque Pleco size question.

Post by Zebrapl3co »

Hello,

Is there another pleco that looks very similar to the L260, Queen Arabesque Pleco?
It says here http://www.planetcatfish.com/catelog/lo ... /229_f.php
that it's only 3.6", but the ones I've recently seen at my LFS was at the very least 6" long and probably bigger.

L066 are quite similar, and they get to about 5" according to the cat-elog

Hi,

yes, there is Hypancistrus sp. "Monte Dourado" from Rio Jari. They reach a total length up to 5.9".
