So here is a picture I found of a "Ghost Zebra". It is a hypancistrus zebra, but is a color mutation. The colors didn't fully mature.

I would buy it, but not for Zebra Pleco prices.

The person that bred that would probably sell it for more than a zebra, calling it a rare mutation.

sell it for twice the price of a normal zebra, and go pick yourself up two normal zebras. HEHE

I think that's the plec that's on aquabid right now as a Zebra hybrid for over $200.

Well sort of. They are both just color variations of the commonly known L046 H. Zebra. However the one in the picture above is said to be offspring of 2 L046 and that the rest of the batch turned out with normal colorations. The one on aquabid looks to be an L098. There are some that just are color, or in this case pattern, variations.
