| High guys , I know he only might be a pretty common Plec but he was the first big plec I brought - he was originally as big as my index finger he's now as big as my fore arm. this is a shot from a few years ago. He has since lost a bit of the "cute" appeal I'm still waiting for him to hit the official mark of 30cm, currently about 28.5cm J | |

| Cheers guys , big plecs are my favourite too- damn shame the only ones in OZ at reasonably affordable are "Pterogoplichtys"( goldspots , gibbiceps, commons) . Also a huge downer - Tadj's L114's not spawning , it would have been awesome to have at least one "Leopard cactus plec" in Adelaide. J | |

| Good to hear you have some big PLecs too, allthough I don't like your chances of breeding them -- unless you have a pond the size of a small damn and a tropically weathered island to spawn them. Good luck though. And this fish in question is L001 - gold spot , not gibby -there can be up to 30cm size difference with the gibby, so be prepared for your albino to get massive. J | |
