I agree. My local fish store has one for 20 bucks with a 30% off special. 6 inches in length.

I think you need to grab me a male loiselli and send it to me

Looks Loisellei to me too. As far as breeding with a dempsey or jag, sure anything is possible I suppose. I have a male dempsey that seems to be mated with a female freddy in a community, but i also house a number of loricariids with them so even if they did spawn, the fry wouldn't make it too far.

As far as being ripped off.....well, it looks like a nice fish and if it's worth 30 bucks to you than that's really all that matters. I've seen 6 inchers cheaper and more expensive. Nice fish BTW. Best of luck with him!

It doesnt look very good. I bought mine @10" for $20 and he looks like gold compared to yours. What is all over the fins?
