Only one occurance in a zoo...where they use massively large aquariums.
Spotted this beauty at C328. Very very nice! Love the body shape and the pale blue spots on the body of the fish.
I did some reading up on Cat-E-Log. Seems to be quite well tempered and eats a variety of foods, which is good for a community tank.
Note that it has not bred in captivity. Can this be so, or is it outdated info? I'm sure the skilled bros here would have performed some magic?

Wow... so it doesn't breed easily. But what a beautiful fish...
It's one of my favorite pleco. The small ones are really cute.
Cheers,
I have dwarf cichlids in my tanks! Do you?
There have been a couple of breeding reported in some other forums, but I have not seen any real evidence (read: good photos) or substantial information on the process.
So this would be a good project if you intend to take it up!![]()
I am focusing on my L46 project now, where "guidebooks" are abound...
But am definitely interested in this number. Wonder if I should just grab a number of them for my 4 ft tank and wait for them to grow out (and possibly move them into a species tank when they are large enough). Anyone know if they are compatible with L183 and Common Bristlenoses?
Oh and while I am at it, will they be compatible with Gold Nuggets too?
I think I will get 6 if they are compatible for my comp tank...
They should be okay in such a community setup, they are omnivorous as are the bristlenoses and golden nuggets. However, as with most plecos, they can be territorial with each other, so provide enough hiding places for them.
Two picture from benny and you're committed to 6 pieces...
Gosh benny, your pictures are really infectious!!![]()

I am looking for those that are spotted throughout... Anyone seen em?
Those are very hard to come by in the local market... keep your eyes peeled when overseas loh..lol..![]()
On the point of buying fishes overseas, I am still not sure what the regulations are. I had them taken away from me once in bangkok by non english thai custom officers. Better luck when returning from shanghai (in plastic 1.5 litre bottles that were checked in), and witnessed custom officers taking away a bag of lohan from a guy bringing them in from malaysia (at the border)
there was a breeding report on planet catfish by a Norwegian.
but its L200.. i believe their behavior are about the same as L128.. they look so similar..
