Watch 'em eat

Really enjoy a good daylight feeding of zucchini to my plecs in my 180 gal show tank...I slice it long ways...stab a fork in it and in it goes. Doesn't take long before they start to emerge from the caves and crevices in the driftwood. Normally the laciancistrus L092 is first then its a free for all through-out the pecking order...upon observation the Panaques (L027, L090, L190, L191,L204,and L239) seem to enjoy the skin side more than the "meaty" side and vice-versa for the nuggets (L177's and L018's) the 128, the hypans (L066,L333,L401,and contradens). The L006 and the L124 don't really care and the L235 anthrax squeezes in where he sees a spot. Only 2 of these are adults ( L066 and the L124) so there is no fear of hybridization...as they mature I introduce them to species and breeder tanks I have set up in my fish room.
