    Hey guys..
    Just wondering, are there any fancy (not bristlenose or common) plecos that will tolerate water with a pH of around 8.0?
    This pleco would go in a 2ft tanganyikan cichlid tank...
    Dosn't have to eat algae...

Anyway he still have balance of 3 to 4 pcs from previous shipment ( quite nice and conditioned pcs ), think he is asking for below 50 bucks ! tell him you're from AQ ! sure give discount one !. Check it out ! cheers ! []
