Alligator Plec

[RealCrix220]

I had a alligator pleco a while back and I’m now on the hunt for another one. It was so cool because when it was tiny it looked super cool and when it got to an adult it was a beast and developed such a great shape. ( sorry I’ve got no full body shots of him, I’ll cut one from a video )

let’s see yours

Hello mate

thanks but I’m in London, England and would really like a small one to grow out as I did my last one

They are my favorite pleco. My first one got up to 13 inches.

They are brilliant, I’ve not long been introduced to the blue eyed red fin which is as equally as beautiful

Don't these plecs also go by the name Rhino pleco? They look so similar to me but I'm no expert so I could easily be wrong.

I do believe they are also classed as rhino ( the alligator plec that is )

They do look neat atleast. Love the extended nostrils on em, it just gives em that extra lil pazzas to an all too familiar body. Personally my favorite is the Black Dragon Cactus Pleco, I just love how they look like they were coated in oil with how dark and shinny they are. I've been half tempted to get myself a rhino once but decided against it's since I didn't have enough tank space at the time.

They do get big Mike was a lovely size

I can’t say I’ve ever seen the one you mentioned but I’m going to look them up now

Wow they are very cool, I’ve never seen them before
