Albino Bn Pleco

[Amunet]

We saw one in our LFS and just loved the way it looked. There wasn't a price listed though and well... we weren't about to ask and have them jack up the price on us.
So just wondering about how much they cost?

Depending on size,they sell here in the uk for around £6 or £7.u can normally pick up juvenilles from breeders for far less

Juveniles this end are £5.95

So really not that much... okedoke.
I just have a feeling that this particular LFS will charge an arm and a leg.

 

[Esfa]

They're like £4 down here.

They are about $5 - $6 here in Oregon, however I paid $18 for my Albino BN that had blue eyes.

Yeah, they sell Trio's of Blue-eyed albino's for about 20 bucks at our auctions( dinky things at the size they sell them).

 

[Amunet]

Oh my, that blue eyed one is gorgeous.

I dunno if we're gonna go back to get one, but I just hope they don't try to rip us off we we want one. Maybe try to get one off the net or something heh.

A trio of them would be awesome, assuming there was enough space. They are so cute! They had more at the LFS today and I had to refrain from buying another one. They were SUPER tiny, though!

Amunet, I'll just throw my 2 cents in and say that I LOVE BN Plecos. They have such personality. My little blue-eyed guy (or gal) actually wags his body like a dog wags its tail! He does it even when he's just sucking on the side of the tank. I have an Albino BN Pleco in my other tank and she (pretty positive it's a she as she's more mature and no bristles) is just as much fun to watch. I had heard Plecos can be a bit boring and aren't very active during the day, but somebody forgot to tell mine that! I'd recommend them.

I have about 150 BN pleco fry growing out, probably a couple dozen albino's among them. I'll be listing them f/s in a couple more months, they're still less than 1" now. My lfs sells browns for $10 and albino's for $20. I'll be selling them for $3-4 each.
