There are so many gorgeous plecos out there. I love my Para pleco - L075. She does use a cave a lot of times during the day but I keep that to the edge of the tank so I can see her all the time. She is out and about a lot in the evenings around feeding time. This is a pic of her when I first got her. I'll try to get another one later on. In general she is chunkier now, more of a deep yellow, especially her tail, which is a nice deep golden yellow.

I also have a blue seam ancistrus. He is super cool, and now that he's older the lines on his fins do actually look blue. He is more shy though, seen more at feeding time than any other. He loves my driftwood. I think if I had him as the only plec he'd be out even more. The Para isn't aggressive but she is pushy and will chase him away from pellets/wafers until she's had her share. Although they will share zucchini for some reason.

I'll have to find a photo of him on my phone, or take one of him tonight at feeding time.

That dark yellow is also on her dorsal fin when she puts it up.

From nose to tail tip maybe 4-5 inches? I've had her since January.
