my first and only pleco

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
Nice L-114. Be sure to feed him meaty foods such as bloodworms, market prawn, tilapia, ect. They are a carnivorous pleco. Real stunners when they get bigger. Slow growth rate, 1-2" a year. They tend to be quite agressive and territorial from an early age. It would probably kick the snot out of a king tiger. Choose other bottom dwellers carefully when adding them with that pleco. I have an L-600 which is basically just a color variant of the L-114 and he's about 11". He will stand his ground and tailwhip the gravel siphon. I can push him with my hand and he will just push back. I have to vacuum around him.lol Males will be a bit more slender(and longer I believe) with more odontal growth than the females.
