Pseudacanthicus Appreciation Thread

[Red Aimara]

After the loss of my main monster comm (though my secondary tank is still alright), I find myself being drawn towards pleco keeping again.

Within pleco world, pseuda always has a special place in my heart and would like to start a thread documenting the various Ls that had since found a home in my main tank.

Top pic: L2464 and L186

Two species that I had never managed to find and kept since early 2010s but have become more accessible these days.

L24. The white stuff are part of the sandy substrate and yellowish water from medication that I am currently dosing.

The smaller L96 (8 inches plus) I had in there with a bigger one that’s picture shy.

Where did you get the 2464?

Where did you get the 2464?

From a local LFS. Was kept by the owner himself and decided to let go. Couldn’t resist the opportunity.

Same 96 finding a comfy parking space.



2464 feeding. The fin was damaged during a fight when the 273 was introduced into the tank. Should heal up nicely in a couple of weeks.
