Hypostomus Laplatae Care?

[Natural Born Chaos]

I'm looking for some plecos for some indoor ponds, so I put an ad up. I had a response from someone saying they had 10, 4" hypostomus laplatae. He's charging $24 each. I'm just curious if anyone had any information on them? I did a quick search but all I could find was a pretty much useless page from Planet Catfish. Also, is that a reasonable price? I'm not sure if my location makes a difference but I live in Canada, Alberta.

Thank you.

Care would be real similar to caring for the common hypos. I don't think the would be terribly picky on water peramiters. As far as price stuff is priced wired in your neck of the woods can't help ya there

Good luck

Alright, thanks. Does anyone know of their behaviour? Sine I am going to keep more than one in the same pond, I wouldn't really want too much aggression. Especially because these ponds are in a tenant building, and I don't want to get calls about the fish fighting or anything stupid like that (it's happened more than you'd think).

In a pond should be low aggression, give them some caves and driftwood in there for sure. That would be a big step in the right direction
