Hi, Could Someone Id My Plec Please

[welshfish1]

Maisy I had mine from P@H and was told the same and after research its definitely a sailfin (gibbiceps) and because ive had it for a while they refuse to take it back so if I was you id check with them ASAP because in my opinion they are rubbish at identifying their fish and eventhough they lied about the species of my plec they wont take it back and know no-one else wants it and I know this sounds horrible but Ive grown to really dislike mine because its not what I thought it was and know im stuck with it

Takke some pictures and pop em on here Maisey. I don't buy from pets at home because of all the stories I've heard. That's why I stick with maidenhead. I'm gonna pop a picture of mine on here too just too be sure.

Hi ,heres the pictures ,bought these from pets at home,who said that they were pitbull plecos and would only grow to 8cm.

 

[marieukxx]

Can't see any pics Maisy. I'm popping mine on now too

 

[maisy12345]

Please could someone identify this fish and advise me how big it will get,thank you.

Well he looks the same as mine to me. Have you got a piccy of the albino one too?

 

[maisy12345]
