oh yes a nice sized L number is a joy to behold, just wish some people would remember that some L numbers can grow very large, and need a tank to match Wink but when you have some then they really are worth it when you see them in all their glory Very Happy

Are they a reclusive fish?

Or very nocturnal?

How do you draw them out?

the bigger of the two is out all day, the smaller one can still get under cover so a bit of food will do the trick Wink

I picked up a young one recently, in exchange of a handfull of Bristlenoses'.

The bugger never comes out tho'! But you know my tank, two inches in from the front glass, and everything disappears into the jungle.

I'll get a post up soon...

Excellant! Some good shots on the glass.

Mine is out all the time now. And even better, he doesn't startle. I've got to get back into picture taking mood.
