Some older pics of my royal

My old albino gibby is in the background. I gave him to my Mother. I did'nt think I would miss owning him but for me it's own of the coolest I've owned. Not too aggresive, always out swimming, and he looked amazing when I had him with a black background and black gravel.(cant find pics of it) I dont think I could have gotten rid of him if he did'nt go to someone I knew.

Another older shot of the L-091

Thanks,I really like the three beacon too. I just wish they were more sociable, but he's still pretty small. You own one also dont you? what kind of growth rate have you seen? I think mine has only grown about 1.5" in about the year I've had him.

I ran into a Goldie pleco, but no way i can house it with my other pleco...


The other three are the plecos from my community 150gallon tank...

Lol mines kept fighting with my 14" Midas that's why it's in with some convicts right now. I bought it last summer at around 5" and now it's close 7". What do you feed yours? Mines goes wild for Massivore Delite pellets.

It gets quite a variety. bloodworms, krill, Sinking cichlid gold, tilapia, market shrimp, algae wafers, catfish wafers............you get the idea. At least that is what is put in the tank.lol Even with a set of lunar lights I hardly EVER see it come out. I will see it stir around under the driftwood, but never get a clear view(until I redecorate).

Honored to have a compliment from you. Your collection is something dreams are made of. Yes I will treat him well and am aware of them being harder to come by. There was a reason I was willing to drive 4 hours one way to get this guy.

Thanks Liz. I need to get some newer pics up. Most of these are at least a few months old.
