How Much Would You Pay For A L114 Leopard Cactus Pleco

[XFiSh_CichildX]

As most places are now charging around £20 for leopard frogs (at least in shops), £30-£40 sounds a reasonable price for L114

edit: also - if your after a special plec, check out ##148###

cheers

if probably go up to 40, sounds like thats what hes after. hes already done the hard work getting it established in captivity, assuming it was wild caught, so as long as you introduce him properly to your tank, you shouldnt have any problems. could use a QT for a bit just to make sure hes feeding, ive never used one though. depends how much you want it i suppose, they are nice my cousin has a decent sized one, its stunning. any more than 40 and id start looking at buying my own juvi one for cheaper, if they're available. factoring in postage though if needed, might still work out more expensive unless you stumble upon one locally.

I paid £20 for my 4 inch one off a guy who was selling his but that was a decent price Im after a few as I want to breed them one day and they do go for a decent amount. I once had a 10 inch one and when it died I tried to replace it and was being quoted £80 odd quid for one that size.

Theyre one of my favourite plecs so impressive when adult and Id happily pay £40 for one

if you do a search on here you'll see pics of my 10 inch one frmo years ago still my fave plec that ive ever had

yeah, you wait till you get a nice L number . i once thought it was ridiculous spending more than a fiver on a single fish, its only a fish. then a 2" flash plec persuaded me to depart with 30 quid, now i wouldnt even consider something as 'normal' as a BN.
