Algae Scraper L183

[barmby]

We are lucky to see them in Singapore. It is quite rare. A great algae scraper at this age. Very hard working. And they look great with their distinct white rim at the tail end.

Introducing Starlight Bristlenose



Some say they glow in the dark!



Stay small 3 inches the max. Don't think you can get 3 inches

Saw the small fellows at C328 last night. Fast hand fast leg bought the last 2, not too sure if ther is new stock coming in.
I was attracted by its spots and the fact that it will not grow big. (according to the shop uncle).

Icefire : Cost for one piece is less than a red note.

equidorz, all sold!? oh my. that was fast.

[equidorz]

Yeah Barmby. The last 2 i saw was together with some galaxies. Looked around did not see any more so faster grab.
Not sure when next batch will be coming in, need to check with the shop owner as my friend is also interested after seeing it
in my tank. A pity i have not seen them in action yet. Still have not clear the alage on my glass.

I am not too sure about the price in the past because this is the first time buying L183. But the fact is they are beautiful creatures. haha

[barmby]

Hi all, false alarm. L183s are still available. Auntie brought in 150 pieces! It is enough to go around for all passionate members of AQ

[icefire]

thanks for the update!

[equidorz]

Good news for L183 Lovers!!

[illumnae]

They're great fish. However, they do grow beyond 3 inches eventually. Some of mine are 4 inches long already

[icefire]

so whats their max size they can grow to? o.o now im confuse whether to get it or not for my planted tank.....

[Jungle-mania]

If your tank is 3ft, I cannot see it as a problem. I hope I can get my hands on a pair when I am back to the red dot end of next month.

[barmby]

IMO, it will not look nice for 2 feet or less planted tank. We try to get smaller fauna and flora for small tank to make scape look bigger. Therefore, big bad algae scraper like SAE, and Bristle-nose like L183 L144 is not cool

[gcce]

Anyone tried & tested the effectiveness of L183 vs SAE as algae scraper in a planted tank? Or do they go after different sorts of algae hence it will be hard to make a comparison? Thanks.

[Kenng]

Hi,

What type of algae do they go after?
Will they be will the rest to go for fish food rather than algae?
