hey,
weeeellll, was browsing today and got this ' large common' plec for £10....needless to say i havnt got 7 plecs already for no reason lol wasnt going to pass this up. but im not sure exactly what he is...
he was really pale in these pics and has darkened since but is under the bogwood so cant get another pic. but his fins are REALLY red and hes a nice greeny/brown colour.

Lol its cos im amazing :nilly:

Its still a nice fish, and Cochliodon are stunners. Still a nice fish and its not always about the value as i had a couple of people interested in buying my old 15" L-027 Xingu Royal panaque and i turned them down. and he did die a few weeks later for pretty much no reason i would have been happier with the money but wouldnt want the new owner to loose it and i was just happy to keep him rather than the money. Fish arent always about the value cos somtimes the cheap ones are the bets :D
 
i completely agree bruce...just im in a bit of a situation atm where it would of been nice to get a bit of extra cash for him lol but im going to be seeling up completely soon anyway, which sucks big time but not much else i can do.
