Here is one of the only fish that lived from a huge loss I took not that long ago. Air pump went out and I lost 77 fish. I did not even know I had this one in there. Sorry the glass is dirty because I have been playing around in there trying to set it up once again.

77 fish, damn man. Sad day :(

[KnaveTO]

Loving the pictures. Will attempt to get pics of mine as soon as I can finish cleaning up them all. Only one more to go, then back to the usual maintenance cycle

[Jkhuu]

[KnaveTO]

yeah that link worked and those are some GREAT shots.

I would love to figure out how to get shots like that with my camera... but I doubt I will.

[Jkhuu]

Nice :)

Are those the L-114/600 you got from Spence?

Hey Jackson,

Those are from Spencer..whats you thought ? 114 or 600 ?

JK

[Jkhuu]

I am not sure. You say they are small I thought they looed to be a good 5.5''-6'' at least.

To me~
Asmall could be a L-600
Bsmall I have no idea really hard for me to tell
Csmall L-114
Dsmall looks like an L-600
Esmall L-114

But these fish are so hard to tell apart so I am not 100% sure

They look great. I am 100% sure the one I bought from him is an L-600 I have to get some pics of it.

Did you put these ones in a phtot tank or whatever they call it? If so what size tank and what has to be done to it?

My buddy is a photographer and said he will come by and take some shots for me but I dont know what needs to be done. My fish are so hard to see I was thiking of setting up a tank just for pics.


Hey Jackson,
I thought atleast 2 were 600. These guys put on atleast 1-2" since i picked them up. I am trying to super-feed them and they seem to be reacting well to it...The fins are almost grown back. I remembered they pretty much all torned and messed up when i picked them up.
For pics. I tried this custom made photo tank out of acrylic and I find that the fish calm down a bit quicker as it black pretty much on all sides. But, i think a 5 or 10 gallon tank would work for that purpose.

cheers,
JK

Wow, some great photos guys! Keep them coming.

[jimmy chonga]

what type of camera/settings are people using to get such nice pics?

[2wheelsx2]

Mine were shot with a Nikon D5000 with the 28-55 kit lens using the P mode and ISO 1600- 2500, no flash.

hehee. I wasn't able to see your fish initially from my iPhone. All I saw was the L91 on the CP logo:) Guess some variants have more colouration covering the whole dorsal/tail fins. Unfortunately, we don't see them special L91's imported to Canada.

[Jkhuu]

One of my many favorites is a L095 / Orange cheek measuring at approx. 13". Very graceful and gentle around other plecos. Will also come out to eat in front of you.

Awesome pics! Its so hard to actually capture the blues in L128's, I wish I had more photographing skills.

L95's are VERY beautiful plecos! and freakin expensive too!

[2wheelsx2]

[jimmy chonga]

where did you get that L90 if you dont mind me asking?

great looking fish:biggrin:

[2wheelsx2]

I got him from Charles (he's also on here). He had 2 males and 1 female to choose from. I took the last one from him though. I love him. I was a bit hesitant in the beginning because of ultimate size, but when I found out how slow their growth rates were, I jumped in.

Just picked up some more L200a (Baryancistrus demantoides) from Charles, along with a few other surprises, a couple of days ago, and managed to snap this shot tonight. http://lh6.ggpht.com/_92IVadGjH2w/S7AUvaJALTI/AAAAAAAABj8/TL-PbAWiOtw/s800/DSC_1482.JPG

Hi Andre,
They always come out yellowish in the pics but in the tank they look pure white.
