jamosfish Posted June 6, 2011 Report Share Posted June 6, 2011 Common Pleco - Pterygoplichthys pardalis Sail fin - Pterygoplichthys gibbiceps Red spot - Pterygoplichthys joselimaianus I have seen Sail fins get to 60cm+. A mate of mine in OZ is breeding them and his biggest would have been 2ft. Red spots tend to reach around 30cm. Commons can get very large too but dont think they get as large as the Sail fins. Sail fins are a much better looking plec. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
