Current Individuals Pleco Collections

[KrazyGeoff]

Hi All,

This post has been created for members to list their "Current Individuals Pleco Collections"

The previous topic "Individuals Pleco Collections ..." became a discussion forum and it bacame difficult for members to figure out who had what plecos.

This topic, created in May 2012, is intended to represent peoples current Pleco stocking and achievements.

It is intended that this post be complimentary to the discussion forum "Discussions on Current Individuals Pleco Collections".

Please use the discussion post for your discussions, even if you are just giving the "like" :lol:

The topic "Discussions on Current Individuals Pleco Collections" can be found here:

Discussions on Current Individuals Pleco Collections

Suggestions for use:

It could be a good idea to keep a standard type of formatting. The old format seemed to work well. This was that format (with a slight modification)

In addition I think that the topic may work better if members enter a new post for their addidtions / reductions rather than just editing a previous post and that way "scrolling from the bottom" so to say will mean that the first time you come accross a members listings, then that will be the latest listing. Perhaps this is our first discussion?

Hey Geoff. Am interested in attempting to breed some of the fancy Plecos. U have successfully bred and raised Apistogramma in the past and have read up about your success... Can u suggest a learner/intermediate pleco to attempt to breed? Also can you advise breeding age. Thanks in advance.

Have had 4 of these - 3 died just totally randomly. All completely separate times, in 2 different tanks, no symptoms or issues with parameters. 1 had matured and was male, I went away for a week and couldn't find him when I came back. Really annoying as I love these guys.

I'm not 100% sure of the type of these guys, and I still haven't taken pics to ID them. Could be Common Whiptails. Were apparently bought as "black tailed whiptails", suspected R parva.

I also recently bought an (assumed) female, bought as a Rhino Whiptail. Still don't have any pics to ID her.
