Rarest plecos???

[Fish24]

What are your thoughts on the rarest plecos?( least seen/hardest to get)

[musicmarn1]

Not rare per say but I have a major crush on L200! Dreaming of a couple for my wilds bio

[Fish24]

Those are awesome. Def have to see that added to my list.

Thanks

Blue eye pleco

This. ^

still kick myself in the *** for selling mine many many years ago, right before they stopped bringing them in. Even at over a grand I've found most of the sales to be BS - seller wont go thru with it or doesn't really have the fish (or was just being told they would get it).

[Fish24]

Well I'm looking for smaller ones. Like 2-3 or 4 inches at most to raise up and try to breed.( just want 2) if you have any hits on places to get them let me know

Are you talking about the blue eyed panaque? John sells those.

L46 Zebra plecos stay pretty small, if you want to breed them you will have a better shot if you have a group. Mike beals sells them

Breeding plecos not easy I hear! Depending pn type of course, I lime the albino bushy tail and zebra and the l200 is placid enough for my wilds tank I spoke to Snookn21 or John check him out he is a sponsor and on his website he has wild caught fish including plecos

[Fish24]

Also when I say 2-4 inches I mean when I get them. The size they grow to does not matter.

[Fish24]

If I could find a blue eyes around 2-4 inches I would buy it. ( I know they don't stay thepat size)

I would not consider it if you want them in your discus tank. They grow to over a foot long and need a larger tank e.g. 150g. and prefer water temps in the mid 70's.
Very expensive if it's the true blue eyed panaque and no reported breeding to my knowledge in captivity.
Go with the L46 Zebra if you want a rewarding challenge. Be prepared to spend $150-$200 for a sub adult under 2 inches. If going this route, do your homework first. Another good choice and my favorite is L134 Leopard Frog or L183 White Seam.

Hope this helps and good luck,

I think I'm going with L200
