Kel ! single yellow strip across its whole body ! man ! this is new ! where u saw it ? what colour is the body ? .
If the yellow strip is on the dorsal fin and the body is green then it is L47 mango or magnum , if the yellow strip is on the dorsal fin and the body is black with yellow dots then it is L177 Iriri Gold Nugget, if there multiple yellow strips on a black body then it is Laser or flash, forgot the L no. oreli ![] Cheers !

Akoh,
to keep L46 (zebra), does it need planted tank? but with it... the pleco always hide, then how to see it??? how is the maintenance for it? what are required for it?

Kel ! planted or plain tank with drift woods is okay/fine for Zebra. Like U said they hide most of the time, the only time u can see them is during feeding !. Generally like all Suckermouth catfishes, zebra plecos are very hardy fishes. They luv highly oxidiated, slight drift current and ph of 6.5 to 7. Maintenance is no hassle ! just make sure u do weekly water change.
If any of u ppl ! want to try and breed this fellow !, try this out ! it may work ! coz' I read this somewhere ! - use a 1" Dia. x 6 " length bamboo, split the bamboo into equal halves, next fasten the two back into position and attached a weight to each ends, sink it to " a quite corner " at the bottom of the tank. If the u're lucky and everything is right ! they'll breed and lay the egg in the bamboo !. Oh ! Yah ! I forgotten one very important point ! you need at least a general ratio of 6:1 ie. 6 male and 1 female. Please don't ask me all the " W " coz' this is what I 've read ! Have Fun ! Cheers !

Hi guys n gals!
I'm a newbie here.This will b my 1st official question/suggestion.What if we could pool everyone orders n then purchase L46 in bulk from Gan's when he gets a new shipment in? It could b quite a saving on our own wallets.It will also saves us time hunting around Singapore 4 the elusive species at a lower price.

Count me in as well. Thanks.

Hi!

I was hoping if there r regular customer of Gan's, maybe can slow talk to him.Even if can't get special price maybe can set aside a number of L46 4 us.Easier 4 all of us.No need to disturb him everytime we visit him n ask whether he got any L46.

Happy Chinese New Year!!!! [] [] []

Wind, BFG and others interested in L46. Thankyou for your interest. As L46 is a seasonal fish, we regret to tell you guys that they will only be available from us for the next season (?April?). Meanwhile, for those who can't wait, it is recommended that you purchase our available stocks: L134, L248, LDA 33, L177, L81, L128 are all nice and petite sized plecos which will not outgrow your tanks. As for prices, I think Akoh (our pleco guru) will agree with me that our prices are already rock bottom. For example, apart from the Imperial Zebras, L128 was going at $70 in LFS, we're selling them for 40 only. Please visit us @ LCK Plot 180 Neo Tiew Lane 2 with your ANG PAO. There are more plecos under our roof than any LFS ****We're open through CNY***
