Regular Member ryukingirl793 Posted May 7, 2005 Regular Member Share Posted May 7, 2005 Just looked it up. WILD! Very unique finnage and I love those bumpy things on the skin. And, needless to say, the horn! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regular Member Devs Posted May 7, 2005 Regular Member Share Posted May 7, 2005 ok,so he does look like I recalled.For a minute there Ryukin's pic scared me that plec is so green looking.Planet catfish had dark ones,and they had the coloring of yours E--he's still pretty cool even if I can't see his horns! I was checking out Aquabid tonight.They have a Leopard Cactus Plec on there that I really like................Too much money,I'm thinking....

Regular Member Erika Posted May 7, 2005 Author Regular Member Share Posted May 7, 2005 Ya know? I only paid 7.99 for that bugger, and he's 4 inches already. I guess they get pretty big like commons, so I'll have to worry about that in the future. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regular Member Devs Posted May 7, 2005 Regular Member Share Posted May 7, 2005 I could be wrong here.I went back to PlanetCatfish to check out his pic again.Do you aslo know that they call them Chocolate Pleco's? Now them ,I have seen.My LFS,Elmer's had them.I can't remeber,but I'm thinking that I may not have gotten because of the size that they become. I have a funny feeling that you're right & that they do get pretty big,and that's probably why I didn't buy him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
