[KathyM]

Oh crikey he's more than a bit gorgeous! Congratulations! Got a name for him yet?

Thanks !! I'm afraid I'm not any good at names. I always think it will jinx them (not that I'm in fact at all superstitious, but perhaps I am) if I give them a name.

Wow Bloo! He is lovely! I bet you're well pleased with him?

I would love one of those but I think my Tiger Barbs would think his tail is for munching on!

He's a beauty!

He looks fantastic. What kind of diet do they eat? Is it omnivorous?

 

[Bloo]

Thanks Bex !

Thanks ! Yeah I believe so - with a slight leniency to meaty foods. Though are not predatory carnivore - phew !

They come in a yellow varient ? I knew they came in a much darker varient, but not yellow ?

From they pics on on PC, the L114 looks stunning - do you have any pics of yours ?

Only got pics from when he was small... and in a bag when we put him in the tank...

He's now in the Trigon 350 and is starting to get used to more company (he had a 4ft tank nearly on his own in the shed)

He's now about 5"

Cant find a piccy of the yellow Titanic... I'll keep working on it

 

[Bloo]

Your L114 is Gorgeous !

Call him "BlooWillWinTheLottery", then go halves with me when you do! Very nice, i've probably missed it but how big do they grow?

Very nice plec Bloo, stunning.

 

[Earthgirl]

Very cool Bloo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I love that plec!
*Earthgirl goes and bangs her head on the desk cause we NEVER get cool fish on this side of the PonD*

Thanks Neal, Ferris and Earthgirl ! It's still doing very well and definitely a fantastic addition to the tank.
Final adult size should be around 12". I've seen some adult photos (on a specialised plec forum) and as adults they are simply super stunning. So I really can't wait !!

Ps: Neal, as for winning the lottery, that would mean I'd have to start buying tickets !
