Very nice!

 

[Grimblegrumble]

The pictures are good, nice looking plecos!

 

[L190]

The l262 looks pretty cool when it is less stressed. Tons of little white dots on it, looks like it is covered in ich.

Wow!! I can't decide which one I like the best -- they're all so cool.

After looking at them all a second and third time, it's the L177 that has my heart.

@L190 Does it bother them to be handled like that? I see pictures of people holding them like that all the time, I've been curious how the plecos take it.

 

[L190]

They probably don't like being handled. People do this so they can take a picture of the fish without getting pricked with the "whiskers" they have

That makes sense. I don't think I could handle my plecos like only because of the unpredictability of the fish and not sure what it would do.

I LOVE that L262! I wish we had space for more plecos! We have a common pleco in our 210g and some day we're going to try to put in a blue phantom that we're growing out but he's much too small for now. I'm hoping they'll play nice if we have enough hiding space in there.

 

[L190]

yeah they should play nice if they have their own space, i have a pleco tank with lots of driftwood in there and haven't seen any crazy pleco fights.

I think I like the L260 best.

I would not put them together, commons get very large and territorial and will most likely kill smaller catfish

Agree with Betty, I like the queen also
