My local monster LFS store has one nearly twice that size, I'll get a photo next time.View attachment 1360923
This is the biggest one I’ve seen for sale.
Oh I didn't notice you had actually bought it, congrats! Look forward to a much cleaner tank, way more efficient cleaners than plecos -- and yes that almost permanent smile is a plus Also while they clean the heck out of your tank I personally haven't found them to be big waste producers.Seems to be roughly 14”.
Kind of a rescue, was in a super small tank previously so was surrendered to a lfs and has been in a 120 for the last 4-5 months. It was lifeless and staring hopelessly at the wall.The main selling features for me was its response to food when we threw pellets in there for it. And I got the guy to drop $20 off the price when I shared it’s possible new living arrangements.
Right now it’s swimming happily around my tank with new friends. Looks happy like it’s smiling. I know this is typical of these guys but it sure wasn’t smiley at the store. I can’t call it my lfs because it came from a store 3 hrs north of me.
I was looking for a 4-6” one to go with the bass since I had to get rid of the big pleco. Guess this means even more frequent wc. Will update with more pics soon
Thanks man. That was the hope that it would clean up and cut down a bit on the waste in comparison to the pleco. They are poop factories- I picked up an L190 the other day for a different tank that is 2-3”. Cleaned it out yesterday and today the qt tank is already covered in poop.Oh I didn't notice you had actually bought it, congrats!

Post some more pix after he's more established in the tank.
He’s doing well (assuming male because it’s so slender and females are typically more rounded)Hey Matteus how's your big new buddy doing? Cleaning like a Hoover vacuum?
