firenzenz Posted October 14, 2008 Report Share Posted October 14, 2008 Plecos are a fish that do come up and bite you that way. There aren't too many plecs that aren't good, main problem with many is size, they get big and poo heaps. Yours will get only to about 12cm and other hypans are about that size. Nice fish, enjoy.

Catfish Posted October 15, 2008 Report Share Posted October 15, 2008 My fav is the Acanthicus adonis - Polka Dot Lyre Tail, but they get really big and I have yet to find them in NZ, I use to have a few when I lived overseas and I loved them. I also really liked my Vampire plec too as he was great at getting rid of any unwanted snails Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lmsmith Posted October 16, 2008 Author Report Share Posted October 16, 2008 Ahhh....so I've found some cool pics of king tigers, and they're really cool!!!! What's the going rate for one of them in petstores? I know mrpleco has some, and I'm very tempted.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
