ChrisMack Posted November 15, 2004 Report Share Posted November 15, 2004 Well it's taken a while,but here goes...a far better look at the plec that was sold to me as a "Clown Plec" (penanque macca) I'm certainly convinced that it's not the before mentioned fish.....any ideas? (L129 has been thrown at me a couple of times..... ) Thanks, ChrisMack Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChrisMack Posted November 21, 2004 Author Report Share Posted November 21, 2004 Hi tropheus, Sorry about the long time replying.......I think I was in one of those "Right time right places" situations when I bought the above plec........I paid $60 for the cute little fella (fella-ess) and made the purchase at Critter Kingdom, Stanmore Rd....and Sorry I dont believe they have got anymore.

Alan_au Posted November 21, 2004 Report Share Posted November 21, 2004 Chris, You can be fairly confident that he is a L129. This Hypancistrus species can be very variable in colour patterns even to the extent that they will change with age. A nice little fish only gets to about 8 cm SL and if you can find a female for him there is no reason that they can't be bred in aquarium.
