I went camera happy last night. I unfortunately didn't get any photo's of my new fish: I believe it is a golden nugget pleco (L018), but the dots on the pleco are a lot tinier and the density of dots is more abundant then what i have seen on the net. I will get its photo as soon as it settles in the tank.

Red Texas #1 (in his "guarding the eggs" color, he/she is mean to everyone right now):




Red Texas #2 (relative of the first red texas.):




Red Terror and Severum (being constantly beat up by Red Texas #1):


Long tail Albino Oscar (glutton):


Jack Dempsey (newest "cichlid", intended to be friends with EBJD):


Electric Blue Jack Dempsey:


All together:

Some very nice pics of some very nice fish you have there With regards on your gold nuggetr it might be the L081 and not the L018 as there are actually 3 types of gold nuggets, yes i know it can be confusing

Nice collection of fish, plenty of aggression waiting to boil over just hope your prepared

Oh, i am totally ready for the agression. I also have a large flowerhorn (photos not included), who just this week killed the only fish in his tank, a full grown chocolete pleco. I have also had a breading pair of red devil's, a manganese, and a breeding pair of texas cichlids. I enjoy the challenge, and it keeps me on my toes.

Cluckster,

When the new pleco decides to mello out and stop hiding, I will post some photo's and you can help me identify the exact "L" connotation. Thanks for giving me the info. I had a feeling this guy had different kinds associated with it.

Lets see the JAG

Sorry about the name error. I am one of those people who reads a name, but says it entirely differently, and then spells it wrong in the future. My bad.

I will try to catch it sometime, and get the photo. good idea. thanks man.

Hay no worries, will look forwards to the pictures when you eventualy catch him/her with the camera

I'm with cluckster << . Sounds like the plec is a L81. L18 has big spots and more of them than the the L177. I have noticed that most of the L81s are almost black in color which would mean they are very difficult to keep alive past 2 weeks. Get some pics so we can properly ID it.

Some very nice fishes there !

That Jack Dempsey is a bit razzle-dazzle when he catches the light.

For a very short time during the year, my lounge tank can catch some late afternoon rays. And when they hit the right fish at the right angle, it's magnificent to see.
