Ok here's a good one. I am going to try and sneak my digicam into my lfs later today, but heres a description.
They call it a Galaxy Pl*co, but is no where near a Leporacanthicus galaxias.
It was about 3" long and seemed a to have a broad head.
The body color appeared to be a medium brown slightly reddish.
One had about 12 yellowish spots between his head and dorsal fin, the other had a few more.
I mean I ould see why they tried to call it a Galaxy as the spots kinda milky way spiraled, but it was way different.
Besides they want $60 US for it....um no, unless it's real odd.
Also they had a tag listing a jungle zebra pl*co, but he was not there, anyone heard that term?

The price given doesn't add up but the only plec I can think of at the moment is Peckoltia cf galaxia, Gold spot. picture not availible in the cat-elog, but i'm sure you can find an image using google.

Post some pics, we could be a here a long time otherwise. At that price it might be a <I>Pseudacanthicus</I>?

Never heard of a jungle zebra pleco but common names are law unto themselves.

Bottomdwelling - where are you in CT ? And what store?

Fin & Feather in Groton

Sorry no pics came out.
After taking a long look it does look like a galaxy.
Still not sure about the others.
Thanks anyway

Hi!

Does it has that Typical Leporacanthicus shape ???
Could be eventually L240-L241 also
have you been through the Cat-elog to see if one was coming close to what you have?
Cheers
