Thats all I can think of off the top of my head, but I'm sure there are a few others around. None of them can really be considered as regular, bu the can be found around the place if you know who to talk to and where to look, and your lucky.

Cheers, Jake.

rcon21 where do you get ancistrus claro for 60?

I paid less than that for mine. I ordered them though my LFS.

thats not fair i can only get them for 100.

What shop do you go to catbrat? do you work at one?

They were at a petshop for $60. I cannot remember where tho. I went to about 10 one one day.

Which distributor/fishery are they available from? I checked the Highway fisheries and Brooklands price lists today and couldn't find them.

Thank you so much guys/girls

That is exactly what i was looking for!

Can't wait to go back now....

I paid $700 for my L14 5-6cm :-?

jamos

ouch. L14s are about $100 in shops and a bit cheaper on TradeMe.

So what plecs do you currently own and which ones are you after when you get back?

i have so far,

L14, L191, 2xL190, L91, L260, Albino sailfin, L104, L52, L007(golden variety), L90, L10a, Longfin bn (albino & normal) plus a few other bn which i breed.

I would be looking to replace them all at least.

I am not going to like having to part with my L14 as she was the first plec i got. she is now about 25cm.

jamosfish

Hey Jamos,

Don't go!!! I was hoping to touch base and get some plecs offspring off you

Bad luck for Oz, good luck for NZ

Serkan

The move is still up in the air atm....

What offspring were you after?

jamos

im not much into my cats but i dont think we have long fin BN over here, ive kept my eye out at pet stores cause ive seen pics of them and i like them. havent seen any albino BN, let alone albino long fins either, but like i said, im not too into cats.

i wonder if you can bring your cats over that were allowed over here? have to be put in quarentine for a bit though and it could get costly?
