I spent a whopping $3.83 after cashing in my petco rewards. So this will be the first official monster to start me out into bigger tanks. Its still 4 to 5 inches but now I have an excuse to get a sizably bigger tank than my 125.uploadfromtaptalk1407695180060.jpguploadfromtaptalk1407695216897.jpg

Local petco fish expert orders in some decent fish occasionally. I wouldnt be suprised if hes not a member here. I think he keeps several monsters . He said he had 2 of these already at 18 inches. Im pretty sure he has a few swimming pools with pacu etc. It was a hard choice between a royal pleco, a blue panaque, some spotted raphael, I really still want a green phantom pleco but theyre still $55. So there were some decent picks for a petco. My 4 year old daughter got the final say. She kept going to this guy.

Quite pleasant to look at tank. And your daughter is an MFK-er in the making :) I am like her. I'd rather have a nice school of ~ a dozen of LSNs and no plecos :)

Yes, chains, rarely, but can surprise us. A lot depends on the manager of the fish section.

Yes shes all about fish. 4 years old and her favorite date is a trip to chuck e cheese and then to petco. Trying to keep the plants happy, probably need a bit more light. I used some native creek rocks stacked for caves and I just found that huge chunk of driftwood in the creek a week ago. Thanks for the compliments.

Nice pickup!! I got my LSN last September and he is pushing 10 inches or so... Kind of hard to get an accurate measurement on him. He is one of my favorites!

Ive had this one about 3 weeks or so and at first he just hung out at the back. Now hes very fast and cruises. Hes eating and loving bloodworms and mini pellets. What does everyone feed theirs as they grow?
