Phantom Blue L-128

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
I have one ...what would you like to know?

They get about 6" and can be a little territorial but not too bad. They are beautiful and fairly hardy.
 
saw one at my LFS nice colors of blue with blue spots... 128.99$ out of my budget... unless its a widebar.. was about 3.5" never seen a blue one in stores..b efore
 
There are many different colorations that both green and blue phantoms can have. L128s can be anything from blue to black. They can attain sizes of 6" SL (does not include the tail). Omnivorous, and needs both meat and veggies. Fairly reclusive when alone, but in larger groups are more willing to come out. $129.99 is WAY overpriced. Generally these sell from $30-50.
 
Nice little plecs. Always enjoy prawns. Greatly differ in colour, if you do a search of L128 on the site, there are a lot of different pics... different amount of spots, different spot sizes, different colour spots, different base colour, dependant on the locality of the plec. Beautiful species, and they prefer a decent amount of flow in the water, particularly the darker (or blacker) coloured ones.
 
awesome thanks guys! i just bought one and i got him some prawn, beefheart, and some cucumber for him to munch on. I love the pattern on him, small blue spots to large blue spots, really an awesome pleco. anybody that wants to share there photo is more than welcome, i think i may post one in a bit!
