but there so nice couldn't afford that so went with this snowball plec.I find 2 fish being sold as snowball plecos, one is the L-102 peckoltia that gets around six inches long and runs $50-$60 US. The other is the larger L-033 baryancistrus that gets to about 10"s and is a bit cheaper, around $30 US, both are listed as good gommunity fish but with a tendency to fight amongst their own species. At today's rate of exchange 25 pounds UK equals $44.33 US. Nice fish.
i recently picked up one of these guys. it was sold to me as a snowball also but i really havent been able to identify the L number since there are a couple that are very similar. planet catfish states that snowball plecos can be diferenciated by a solid black band at the end of the tail and dorsal fin. i havent noticed this in mine. his fins seem to be solid black w/ no band. i think the common name of the other similar fish was large white spot pleco.
they all belong to the Leporacanthicus galaxias group the two comon ones are L007 and L029. id yours here http://www.planetcatfish.com/catelog/loricari/INDEX.PHP scroll down to the Leporacanthicus galaxias
