Out of the all the new plecos I've picked up I've had. The 3" goldie, 3"gold nug., and a 3.5" lepoard frog DIE! I'm pissed. I don't know why they died. The lepoard died the day after I got it, and the nug about 2 weeks. The goldie week and a half. Crappy part is most of them were only guarenteed upon arrival. No refunds! Not to mention the L200 that was DOA. That has really put a damper on my week. Good thing the local fish club auction is this weekend. That means more money for plecos. I also keep a ton of Malawi, and Tanganyikan cichlids. I breed them then sell them at the auction. When a certain species becomes not wanted I auction of the pair. I've been hoarding for this auction. I'm hoping to bring home at least $200, and it's all going twards plecos.
