L25 Or L24- Still Available?

[simonas]

Are the above two plecs still available to buy? Been a few years since I kept fresh but I recall them appearing again in small sizes just as I was leaving freshwater fish.
 
I'd love another when I set up again?

L25 Scarlet pleco, really stunning, I love the orange markings on these
 
But as for availability, I really do not know to be honest, I had heard of a member getting one of these a year or two ago and thats hw I had heard of these plecos.
 
Depends if you're UK or USA based, be more available in USA I would have thought tbh.

• just done a bit more digging and they seem to have come down in price, the larger examples I have seen for sale going for £150 to £200 when about 5 years ago theyd have gone for £400 plus

They are definitely still available, the L25s are starting to be captive bred as well, i have a 10" 7 pointer in my tank and he is truly stunning. He was only 275 USD at 10"
 
The L24s are usually cheaper than the L25s though.

Have you got a pic? I'd like an L24 more, I've had a couple of L25s over the years but not an L24

I dont have any photos of the L24 unfortunately because ive never had one haha 
 
The L24s are a more greyish color and i prefer the black and red so thats why I lean towards the L25.
