Male Bristlenose with eggs Vs Clown Plec
Just before going to bed last night I noticed that one of my male Bristlenoses ( Ancistrus cf. cirrhosus ) was fanning a huge clump of eggs in his cave. This morning before leaving for work i checked all my tanks and saw one of my Clown Plecs ( Panaque maccus ) trying to force his way into the cave ...

Re: Whiptail Catfish ID
I guess the only reason i was thinking H.parva as it was the only thing that looked close but i cant recall seeing H.beni when i was searching. I assume the reason for thinking female is due to the overall shape. I got the last 2 in the shop to see if they would breed but they both seem the same. Is ...

Clown Pleco - Sexing help please

Any guidance would be great. I have been told that the females will be much rounder overall but there doesnt seem ...

Re: Bought as Chocolate Zebra Plec- mmmmm ?
I wasn't trying to start an argument I do just see a lot of fish poorly kept by "experts" in shops. The double standard being if it was a puppy or a kitten then they would face fines & possible prison sentences. I can't say I wouldn't have rescued that fish myself but it doesn't sound like very ...

Re: Bought as Chocolate Zebra Plec- mmmmm ?
100% L104 I have 3 myself which i am trying to condition for breeding. They are Nocturnal so rarely out in open for much of the day. They stay relatively small mine are all between 2 and 3 inches long. I've never paid more than £6 for a healthy one so I would be wary of the LFS who sold you a sick ...
