hey there, I got mine for $35 or so, some places have them cheaper now... as to max size, no promises, but I'm thinking around 8 inches, maybe a bit more. And for algae eating, they're one of my better plecos at that... frequently out chomping on the glass or filter tubes. Can't tell you exactly how effective they are though

Hi we have had L200 cats in at 6inch but I beleive they can grow to 8-9. Prices in uk are always higher and 3-4 inch specimens can go for anything from £25-£35 around $37-$52. The L128 it very similar but has blue spots and is a little dearer.
