Excellent, swaps like this are what needs to be done with this species.

Gorgeous plecs!

The only time I've ever seen them around here, they cost like $200. . . . . .
It's insane.

Cheers,

Im no plec expert so they look like fat tank breds to me but still, very nice,

there wild caught about 5years ago and have beed in a tank for 5years thats why they look very healthy and fat,importing these plecs has been band for a while now.so the juvi you see for sale will be tank breed,
these 3 have been caught from the wild

I would have a some of those but the cheapest I have seen them around here is at around $220. Stunning fish tho. Are you trying to get a breeding colony?

love em, great plecs

i have a breeding set up just never raised a spawn yet,i own a good sized colony.it takes around 3-4 years befor these plecs are sexualy mature to breed so theres alot of nothing happening for the 1st few years but mines are now at the age of breeding so fingers crossed,

$220 is prob for a zeb of 1inch long.my new 1s are 4-5inch
and females of that size have been sold for £300($600) upwards
