Read the below article on Blue eyed plecos i found it quite interesting http://www.planetcatfish.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=11574

Just to let everyone know Albino Bristlenose have just come into the country and will be in shops at around $60-$80 each at 4cm cheers Kyle

I Breed GBA's aswell and L52(butterfly pleco) and Banded whiptails and hopefully twigs and another sp of pleco soon aswell.Rob who is on this site breeds a lot of plecos cheers Kyle

hi There are quite a few nice ones at jansens mt eden at around $15 each cheers Kyle

anyone bred leleupi b4 please advice on sexing and spawning cheers Kyle

actually i was there today around the $160-$170 mark

the mt roskill one but if you want some ask them to order it for you from the wholesaler as they didnt think anyone would buy some i think so thats why they ordered 3 to breed with but the guy said he could get them

I coukld see one male jake and i didnt see the other two and hollywood are going to try and breed them there about 8-10cm cheers

Zebra plecs are available from hollywood fish farm at $600 no jokes i just been there and they had three so i asked the guy how much and he said those ones wernt for sale but he could get them for $600 from the wholesaler does anyone wanna buy any i dont have the money but maybe someone does cheers kyle

the only thing i disagree with is that they have only been bred three times the auckland zoo have bred them quite a few times cheers Kyle

baby whiptail baby L52 or butterfly pleco

hello

Ye defitnely a male LOL

The problem now dan is that they are banned from wild capture as they are on the cites list and therefore have to be captive bred and not too many people do this and the people that do sell in there own country and probably wouldnt sell overseas cheers

Actually LB it is very smart as african tanks should always be crowded as evens out the agression and spreads it around thats why that photo above has so many and thats why if you do go to malawi or other rift valley lakes there are millions of fish everywhere

as far as i know only me and rob(rob being first) have bred these guys in new zealand but who knows there maybe if so i wouldnt mind swoping a few as i would like some bloodlines cheers

well my male has done it again and the female has laid twice the amount since last time and this time i will not be stupid and take the as they are hatching sorry about that guys.Any way the babies from last spawn (2) are about 2cm and growing really fast so hopefully ill get a female out of these as i i think my third adult may be a male but he/she is hard to tell from as fights with my male but looks like a female but my spawning female did fight a little this afternoon to get to spawn with my male cheers Kyle

well only five babies made it sadly and i know why so many died as i was to keen when i saw that some babies had hatched i decided to take all the eggs and the babies out in a seperate tank but i think the babies need the male to kep the eggs cleand and actually hatch them out of his mouth but the 5 are doing really well so hopefully they will raise up.But dont worry guys i am petty sure the female is going to spawn soon as she is so fat and i think she only deposited half the eggs and still has alot left over as she is so fat and the male is fanning for her will keep post on the five and how they go and when the pair spawn again and i also have another female so might gve her a go aswell as she is really fat

Alan i went the other day and saw these killies i think Australes were $70 for 1 male and two females and those Arnetti were cheaper cant remeber price but they arnt anything to look at and i think there were only two there but i never saw the guntheri

below is a pic of the newly born

Yay the babies hatched today ill put some pics up tonight

hey jammos only two of what you have listed you can breed and they are gold nuggets and buterflys thats if by you saying L030 as peppermint but if its peppermint ancistrus then there not to difficult to breed.For breeding gold nuggets will be quite difficult as they reach a big size over 16cm and thats huge and are quite difficult to sex.butterflys arnt very easy to breed either mine spawned after being well conditioned and having a 3foot by themselves with nothing threatning them my ph was 6.8 and temp around 28c they need a fast curent going around the tank and water to be clean hope this helps

guppy females usually have black eyes while gambusia will have more silvery eyes and a different shape to a guppy
