black and white royal pleco

[peathenster]

Hi guys - what's the L number on these guys? http://www.aquabid.com/cgi-bin/auction/auction.cgi?fwcatfishp&1265070535

Thinking about getting some.....in terms of care, are they pretty close to L190, L191 etc?

Thanks...

Looks nice. Post some more pictures if you get it but I think the black and white might be kinda rigged from the lighting, but that's just me. I hope the colors are really as they appear.

Its a L-190. just more white than usual.. which is why snookn has it for bid.. its a nice fish..

Same as the others here, its L190, but the colours do look a little extreme. IMO worth getting and hoping the colours stick.

It sounds like the seller is having second thoughts on selling this individual (possible new L number?) See:

I was looking at it too, but I think I'm going to just get the regular royals he's got. If you grab it please post some pics has it grows, neat looking pleco.

John said this is the only one he has now (or has ever had). Considering the size and the fact that he has loads of L190 to compare to, I'd say the color is staying. I can't afford the price he wants but I do think it's a fair price...so I ended up getting some L190s and a bunch of other things instead...

How much did John say he wanted for this unique individual? Aquabid only shows that the reserve price hasn't been met at $20. I'm guessing $150.
