L14 Goldy vs. L25 Scarlet

[McPhishy]

Which one would you rather have?

Also while on the subject, a 2" L25 can't live with 3-4" L14 right? Since pseudas and scoobies can't live together right?

L14 Goldy:

L25 Scarlet:

Toss up, Scarlets can be bullies. Where can you find a scarlet? I've been looking.

 

[fishbum]

Get the L25. No question.

scarlet by far in my book there harder to find and cool looking..

Been looking for a scarlet for awhile now. SCARLET ALL THE WAY!!!!!!!!

i agree... Ive only seen L014s maybe 3 times in person, but ive never seen an L025 and just by pics, the L025 looks more impressive.

Sorry to derail your thread a bit, but how much would you expect to pay for a 6" L25?

Is $200 a good price? :O

I doubt anyone will ever prefer a goldie to a scarlet, scarlets are much more rare, and grow larger.

@ the above post, I think that's a fair deal, scarlets are very rare.

I would say $400 for a 6 inch scarlet which is would I would pay for one that size. There is no comparison L-25 all the way. Also i have seen it done in very large tanks but pseuda's as a whole do not play nice with other plecos their size and with thier armment of hooks and spines they usually get their way.

X2, both on expected price and preference. Even finding juveniles for sale is quite rare these days. A 6"+ piece is near impossible to find on this side of the world.
