That's really an awesome collection, madness.

The only plecos I have other than my bristlenose, regular and albino, are two leopard frog plecos. I'm not sure, but I think they are both females.  Do you know the sex of yours?

Wow those things 'pop' on the black sand!

Not to derail but what are you using? Is it the Black Diamond Blasting Sand? I need some black sand ideas....

Very nice Betty.

I dont know what I have, here is what it says for sexing: "Males develop small teeth-like odontodes which adorn the leading pectoral fin rays and the back half of the fishes body. Females remain unadorned and have a wider girth across the body most evident when the area just behind the pectoral fins is viewed from above."

Mine had that wide girth when they were younger, but have slimmed down since then and I'm not sure about the odontodes.  Sometimes I think they have them and sometimes not. :scratch: 

DMD, that's Tahitian moon sand.

L155 Adonis
He resides in my 55g (I know Adonis gets VERY large) I hope by the time he needs to be moved to a larger tank I'll have one set up.

Not anytime soon. Just got him a couple weeks ago. Though If I ever need to re home. You will be the first to know.

Aquarium Co-Op actually. Dunno if Cory will have any more soon or whatnot but you can always ask him if he can get another?

I can usually get them. However last week they were out. I get them in at least once a month depending on how many I think I can sell in a short period of time :p

Do you have photos of your tank setups? Your collection is awesome. Very cool to see someone local with as many as you do!

I know you weren't talking to me, but Madness posted a video for me to see his pleco tank on one of my threads. You can see it here: viewtopic.php?p=113618#p113618

Just skip over the first 5 min where he is talking about a contest that is already over. It's a pretty amazing video of his pleco tank.

Thanks everyone, I just posted an update post with more pictures here: viewtopic.php?f=2&t=11566

@ArtPleco I do have some pictures of the tank but because I float plants in there and I keep the water so dark, pictures are difficult.

@ziggyzoo Thank you, I love those as well. I just recently grabbed an L090, you will have to go check him out at the link above. He is the first pic. :)

@flamechica No worries, feel free to link or post anything that you saw or read on here. :)
