Here's the 59's....simply stunning........

http://www.planetcatfish.com/catelog/species.php?species_id=1806

Any idea on price?
Was gonna say I only have females but after a dig around in the tank and upon closer inspectin looks like I have 2 females and a male
However I could be wrong as I've just found out both can develop bristles and mine are small atm

Will leave them in the community plec tank for 6 months or so then have a go at trying to breed them but may still pop over to pier and see what they have

No price yet but i will ask him today he said he was getting them today so i'll let you no....

what is it youve got jagz the L59's??

Curby, I have 2 juvies L59's one is growning alot faster than the other so I am hoping they are a male and female.

Just spoken to Peir and they have L309's in not sure of size but just been told £22.50 each a bit more than the £10 I paid for the 3 I already have but gonna go and have a look after my appointment today so s/be there around 4pm all being well.

Want to compare the size of them to mine, if sexable may get a pair as you do not see these that often, only the 2nd place I have seen them in 2 years and the other one was MA in Bristol who only had 3 and TheGeeman got them.

Out of the 3 I have only one has bristles and only around the lip so could be a young female or a male too early to tell.

Gonna ask them if they can also get the elusive Rio Paraguay Red Spotted BN, last time I spoke to Neil about these he'd never heard of them

jagtazman didnt you see gemmas 309s when you picked the 144s up their realy nice would have some but ive now got something on the way so ive no room for the 309

Deano, if you have the Rio P on the way I am jealous as hell, spoke to Neil at Pier who's gonna try and get some for me,
This is the only BN am now looking for, you'll have to tell me where you got them from / sell some to me

If it's any other BN then nice one but not interested :P

Right there is a 1 week delay on the L059's so weve gotta wait...
also spoke to neil just to confirm what jagz said about the L183's and yes they do require more pammpering than other ancistrus..
cheers again jagz for pointing this out...

I'd imagine £18.50 - £22.50 Deano

My gut would say £20-£22.50 each

same price as jagz id say and neil always gets wildz in so they wont be juvi's......

i'll keep in touch with neil and let you no...

The L309's range from 2.25 maybe 2.5 to 3.5 inch in size
The L183 were 2-4inch
I'd imagine the L059's will be similar
They did have some LDA72 a while back which were fully grown adults so he does get adults in occassionaly
