1. Unless my eyes deceive me, it's a common plec in the pic.
2. It's not fully grown so cant be sexed.
3. They only spawn in large breeding ponds, never in fish tanks.
4. THEY WANT £150 FOR IT!!!!



*Lisa goes to feed Wideboy some more growth hormone and fertility pills*

Haha £150!!
My lfs had some fully grown commons in for £20.
Some people......

 

[stang1]

If they get £150 for that then I'll go and buy a load tomorrow!

I posted this on Plecofanatics too, and it turns out someone else emailed her and explained that they cant have bred and she said (and I quote):

well she must be a miricle of modern day biology then because i assure you she and our male produced an offspring which we passed on to a friend so in this case i'm afraid you are mistaken. Thank you for your input

What a scammer! I mean, only one baby? From two plecs that dont breed in fish tanks? They just happened to give it to a friend? What a load of crap!

lmao... 150 pounds for a common plec... sigh

 

[kpintheshed]

oh my god imagine if some one broght it

 

[mlawson]

I should be getting £300 pounds for my 2 commons then.
I heard they needed atleast 16 squared feet to breed in.

 

[LisaLQ]

Yeah and I wouldn't boast if mine bred in my tank, because they prefer really dirty muddy water too!

 

[Nevergone815]

That is all I have to say to that...

 

[my fat fish]

HHHHHHHHHMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM more guts than a slaughter house!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[Rhiannon]

I saw one at the LFS for AU$20 the other day. I bet someone really stupid buys it for 150.

 

[prankster705]

Rhiannon - that's more like 300 australian dollars...

 

[LisaLQ]

I bet someone really stupid buys it for 150.

They'd have to be!

I wonder if there's any Ebay rules about scamming folks like that? I mean, it's not as if we can disprove her really, is it?
