Pleco pricing

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
I picked up mine for $2.50 from a LFS that gets them from a breeder, not farm raised.
 
Thanks for the replies. So would 7$ be considered overprice for a regular bristlenose pleco?
 
sounds like a good price and if you like it go for it. I used to buy fish big for $50+ and pp thought i was nuts. I just wanted big fish quick because i didn't want to wait for them to get big. Now i love buying them small and watching them get big. sry i'll shut up gl and go for it

Thanks for the input, I still buy big fish cause I am not patient enough to watch fish grow from like 1/2" to 6-7".
 
I picked up an albino bristlenose at 2 inches for ten bucks. I saw a 5 inch black bristlenose for ten at the same shop.Albinos go fro about three times the price ime.
