Gannet Posted September 2, 2006 Author Report Share Posted September 2, 2006 the three that i found are: L077 L137 L138 i was just wondering what one is in nz that has this names Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fishboi Posted September 2, 2006 Report Share Posted September 2, 2006 we dont get L138 in NZ at least i've never seen or heard of anyone owning one. L077 and L137 are pretty much the same fish which is the common name= rusty pleco [link above] u can also get the L137 spotted version in NZ too. as what pleco is sold under the name bruno the answer is probably none but butterfly loaches are often sold under the name bruno suckers. thats why we hate common names :roll: ouh yeah by the why none of these 3 plecos are an Panaque specie they are all Hypostomus Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
