I'm so jealous of you guys..i can't get any small pleco's here...the smallest i've seen is 6" for 55$...and the really big ones $$$ forget it! I want a pleco!!!

 

[FishChick]

Kitten, if your jealous of it do you know anything about it????

 

[ryanp15]

Kitten- That small pleco is just going to get bigger anyways so why be jealous. Why are your plecos so expensive?

    Ryan ;D

 

[kitten]

How would i know why our pleco's are so expensive??? Everything here seems expensive...i bought a 300W heater for 85$, and that was a cheap one.

And i'm not going to buy a 6" common pleco for 55$. I'll just keep bugging the LFS to get me a smaller one.

Sorry fishchick, maybe if I HAD a pleco I could help you out.

 

[FishChick]

Wow, I can get a 300W visi therm for $20-30ish depending where I go. and that is dishing out a lot of cash for a heater.

 

[FishChick]

oh, I am just going to get 2 of the little (?) plecos in at my work, because someone wanted them. (I hope he comes in for them) If they turn out to be evil plecos, they are only $8.99, I'll buy them and take them home

 

[kitten]

evil plecos?

 

[FishChick]

yep evil.  it is my word for all bad things in life/

 

[ryanp15]

Everything is kinda expenisve here too because there is only 1 fish store around now after the other one closed. There is always wal-mart but we all know how reliable there fish products are! I couln't find anything on those plecos! Sorry fishchick.

     Ryan ;D

Theres a fish called a "blonde bulldog pleco" maybe it's the same one...

 

[clothahump]

There is a strong possibility the fish in question is an albino Ancistrus, they are fast becoming regular in shipments to the UK, they are farmed in mainly in Singapore,quite how they achieve the Albinoism I dread to think. 8)

 

[FishChick]

I saw them, they look like common plecos except they are brown.  They didn't look like true albinos.

 

[clothahump]

They are not fully albino, more of a rusty colour. Is this a better description of the colour. 8)

 

[kitten]

wouldn't chocolate be the right word? ;D

 

[clothahump]

Depends on what sort of chocolate you eat. :-*
