Ahh, the spiny monster pleco. A lovely ugly fish that doesn't get the love it deserved. Glad to see someone else loves them :D.

hi Jason I also have a L160 about 18cm, mines also a very very aggressive feeder, in fact its just very aggressive for a pleco, probably the most aggressive pleco I've seen

Lol.
This is random but related to the pleco. How would someone ship a large spiny monster? There spines would pop the bags I would think unless you used an incredibly thick bag.
 
Usually they come in a heavy plastic bag and inside that bag there is a blue plastic sheet that covers the sides and bottom, when I ordered some from Wes the bags seemed like they were leather wrapped on the bottom, those have been the nicest bags yet.
