"I'll see what I can come up with over the next few days, btw I just got back from Peru on sunday and i was lucky enough to spend 3 days in the amazon, 25 miles down river from Iquitos...it was incredible but i wasn't able to bring any fish back with me "

This is a gibbiceps I had to sell last year cause he took a liking to discus slime - only problem was the slime was still swimming around on the discus!

Here is my pleco, its about 4" I think. Every time I try and get a ruler close it disappears. I was told it is a L-83 Sailfin but it doesnt really look like any pictures I have seen online. It seems pretty aggressive too, I am not sure why, always has a fully belly and eats pellets which is hilarious. Seems like it is always chasing one of my cichlids though, so it might have to go. I am thinking about putting it in the 10g to put some size on it and see if I still feel like keeping it. Can anyone reconfirm the L-83? It has put on a couple on inches since it was ID'ed. What do these guys like to eat, maybe that the problem...I give it algae tablets and it eats pellets, but maybe thats not enough anymore...anyway, check it out!

JayK1320, your fish is a Pterygoplichthys joselimaianus. Used to be L001/L022. They get real big real quick, I recently moved a 16" for a friend, it's a badass.
