Plecs

[Carlovel1]

My L137 is about 7" and has been for a long time - He is bueatiful too - nice markings and dark red tinged fins with blue tinged eyes.

Was a bit heavy on the wallet at just over £50 tho and very hard to get hold of due to the S.American export bans.

Sounds like a nice fish, my LFS got these in and are selling them L137 for £15 each, and they are a decent size. I'd love to get one but I'm getting some L134s instead.

I paid £35 for the actual fish (with the rest being delivery cost) but had a massive problem finding one in my area. Wish I could have found one for £15!!

Assuming of course they are "proper" L137s and not something else marked up as a 137.

They were labelled as Red Eye Rusty Pleco, this is L137 right?

Red eye? No...the eyes are normally slightly blue (would love to find one with bright blue like some pics ive seen!) and the fins are reddish brown.

There is a few names they go by. Mine came in under Hypostomus sp.aff cochliodon. Planet catfish has it at Hypostomus soniae. The common name is Blue eye red fin pleco.

It could be a variation? Some good examples of it on the photos on planet catfish cat-elog anyway.
