L number ID help

[Fishking]

Hi just wondering would anyone know what type of L number this might be? I know he is a male, from the hair on his tail and that he is fanning all the time so I wanna get him a female but I don't know what L number it is?

I hope someone out there will know what there looking at thanks so much for reading

Hi,

looks like Panaqolus changae (L 226) or look Panaqolus cf. changae.

I would guess some type of small panaque like L002

 

[john77]

think he looks like 226 more than L002 the face is wrong for L002

202.... 226 i doubt very much not common in australia....

202 cross with something or 002 poss cross with something like 397 ? . Can you get us more detailed photos.? Cheers jk :thumbup:

Thanks everyone for the very helpful info!! ill get more pics up today

I dont think it is an L002, the head is right but the pattern is wrong, the stripes should be more uniform, It could be a hybrid L002 and yellow L333?

202 or 002 poss cross. Can you get us more detailed photos.? Cheers jk :thumbup:

i doubt they would cross BB as one is panaqolus and one is peckoltia...

i was doing a bit of research and it seems what used to be L202 tiger pleco (panaque) is now L226 tiger pleco (panaqolus)

so going back and looking at the pics again its a dead certain tiger pleco = L226

i wrote the mail wrong, was more talking about a 002 cross. Anyway if it is an L226, then indeed that is a good buy, not many I have seen. cheers jk :thumbup:

I only paid $25 bucks for the big fella what's a L226 worth and or where I could prossily buy a nice size female

 

[Bigjohnnofish]

thats about all a male is worth.... prob looking at couple hundred bucks for a female....

when asking for a female quote its a tiger pleco that used to be L202 but has now changed to L226 as a lot of people maybe unaware of this change as i was... it seems panaque has been substituted for panaquolus... i mean vice versa... panaque has disappeared....
