Random Shots - Learning To Use The New Camera

[prankster705]

Some random shots, would be nice if somebody identified the pleco, bought as peckoltia sp. - L170, not completely sure on it though as the shop has snakeheads labeled as mogurnda gudgeons...

excuse the particles in the water, shots taken just after feeding

Not sure if its a L170, but I'm sure someone will know.
Doesn't quite look like one

Thx for the kind words everybody...

No recent shots, I'll take some tomorrow (04:46am here)


I just can't figure the pleco ID ... It's been doing fine for over a year with minimal growth though, so it's probably fully grown and I'm just curious...

The plant is green tiger lotus, nymphae lotus "zenkeri", grows 3 leaves a week, each around 10 cm across. Also has grown a small "plantling" next to it which grows smaller leaves so it looks really neat, I'll take some more pics in the evening.

Camera - cannon powershot g9, if anybody has some advice, feel free to give it.

Tiger lotus comes in 2 variations, green and red ...


The pleco does kinda look like L002, the head pattern seems to be similar in mine, but it has less contrasting colours, still, closest match I've seen so far ; THX

After going through most of planet catfish it seems most like L226 - Panaque changae

Cool and interesting fish, I see you have a certain taste.
