I assume you got an invitation to their annual late night sale. 25% off all fish. The 50% off is nice. too bad i'm broke right now. Take a trip sometime to Bob's, his store is amazing. Very knowlegable staff, and they will order anything you want in that they can get.


Sounds good, where at in Lewiston is it? I'll have to hijack a car and make the trip!
 
As you go into town if you take the main road up towards walmart, homedepot, safeway, etc. On the left across from Albertsons you'll see a big sign. he's next to radio shack. most of the plecos I buy randomly I get from these guys, as well as my arowanas.
 
Here are the pictures... they are kinda dark and not all that sweet

a really unusual looking pleco that one, congrats on having something a bit different.
 
That pet store use to have albino temminckis in stock, but they sold out. Last I had heard from Bob they still had one of the albino's down there. Very fun pleco. Took care of one for a few days, they are very shy, but with fins like they can get, its hard to hide.
 
I think they are what we get here in Oz
called long fin marbled bristle nose ?? $185 :WHOA:

is temmincks their scientific name?
 
everything good costs an arm and a leg here :cry:
its about location(long way to go in a bag)
and import authorities are tough
and noxious fish list is longer than a plecos poo
 
Thats out of control! I paid $20 for that guy.... about 2"
