[zerojquan85]

$45

thats a steal! they go for more than that for that size...

All I can say is I love my LFS for plecos.
They have some L091's for $75 @ 5-6". It was a toss up between this guy and them. But I had to make a hasty decision cause I was there after hours.

 

[vaine111]

Well it was between the Goldy, L091, and a Green Phantom(L200) which was $60.

see that is odd A L200 is no more than 35-40bucks..

While L-14 range from 50-75 for young fish.. L-14 are offlimit.. they are banned from being exported in Brazil.. so they are hard to come by.. plus the very fish itself is sought after for their gold spots..

 

[vaine111]

Well they do have smaller phantoms at lower prices maybe this one was a trade in.
The L091 are banned too but they have had these in the store for over 6 months which if I remember right thats about the time the ban was put on them.
I guess it looks like I better get that other goldy and hope its a female.
I hear they are different from royals. Where as the head is bigger on the male then the females which goes the same for Zebra's too?

There is a ban on L091's? The three beacon pleco?

I hope not

I've seen them online for $40-$50

Theres no ban on Three beacon..their sorta aggressive...

I wonder why L-14 are available.. i was under the impression they are banned... But most are smuggled.
