Right-o, as a few people have started to ask about plecos, and over the past 10 years, i've always had at least 2 plecos in my tank, and so, i have had a few varieties. As its a pain to surf websites for information on each individual pleco specie (although planetcatfish is recommended) i am putting together this list of a general overview of all plecos, starting at L001- Glyptoperichthys joselimaianus. I am aiming for 20 a day until im done. I hope it helps people, and if not, here are some pretty pictures :grinyes: :ROFL: anyway, here goes.
 
This is going to be a long thread, lol.
 
This is a great idea!...love this thread!...keep 'em coming!
 
It would be best to include credits for the pictures.
 
will do for future. so far most pictures are either from www.planetcatfish.com, www.kerklied.com, http://pleco.plecos.net/art_l41.php, plecoworld.com, my own pictures, or other good ones found here on MFK. i'll credit them in future, even though, many pics i have found on the web will not be from the original photographer. info is thrown together from lots of places, no one site seems to have info on every pleco so its a lot of searching. (either that or personal exp.). think thats all
 
kudos to you for doing so much posting etc. Nice work. And thanks for all those great pics in one place.
 
I love these you could look @ 20 @ a time!! Thank's for that!! :thumbsup:
