Did you see the L203 on AQ? you need to get that! http://www.aquarist-classifieds.co.uk/php/detail51_134460.php
If you are thinning out then let me know, one day your gold line will be mine! I'd still let you visit and send you pictures of him though so you dont miss him too much

Lol yeah I have seen it, one of my dream plecs but I'm moving house soon so I'm not suposed to be buying........and I'm struggling to qt him in my spare tank, need it for the move! The gold fins are l360, great fish, good size as I have had them a while and love them. I have just been taking some vids of the big wiska having some snap, will get the vid posted up tomorow hopefully. Still don't have any good stuff on my big xingu, he is not happy with a camera.
As for gold line, you will be my first port of call mate!

Forgot to say, papa is 10" maybe plus tail? Thanks for the nice words folks...........I supose nano tanks are kinda cool as well!
Could I be second? Oh and on a completely different subject did I ever tell you that you were the inspiration for me to get into Panaque?
ever since i saw him just havent saw a nicer panaque. Make sure you get some some of your xingu too, im still to see some of him, I think your update thread is well overdue. Sorry for taking over your thread Doodles, What nano you going for? I saw one of the new fluval edges for £80, that seams pretty good to me and they look smart too.
I'm glad you did bud, gecko got me into it lol, dam panaque fever it's gripping! Your fish are looking great, would be happy to home gold line in with him!
And dub, I would be fizzing on the spot if I was expecting the fish you have coming!!!!!
After I had seen yours, I saw all the SG bro's like Gecko, Akoh and Hans-Tank, and it cemented it for me. Worst thing was that as soon as my interest peeked the big panaque stopped coming in. First time at Pier I saw a 40cm Xingu and 30cm Pure black and white Royal (amongst all the others), then nothing after that. I'll be out of the game for at least a year though, I hope it will have picked up by the time I get back in.
Definitely not giving up, but my fish might, my mum is in charge of my tanks, woo! Im gonna try and wangle some tank space somewhere since im studying marine biology and zoology. 2nd year I will find somewhere where I can fit a tank in, panaque sized obviously.
Just wait til you see the pics then Oscar, here's the details \/\/\/
The shipment arrived last night with a 100% survival rate and a serious amount of WOW factor
I received 6 big L90a ranging from 7-9" with massive and beautifully long tail extensions. Also the largest one appears to be differant to the other 5.
OMG the L350s.......2 of them are HUGE and seriously special, over all body length is about 10" plus 4-5" tail and extensions coming out of a striking 45deg angled tail . I also received 3 others 4", 6" & 8" the tail extensions arent as long on the smaller ones.
I will hopefully get some pictures on Saturday, by then they should have settled in and coloured up. As they have only been in for 24hrs so far.
The big 350s are truely amazing........
* WARNING PANAQUE-AHOLICS*
I will be getting all the big guns during the summer, next shipment will be in August probably. I am waiting for confirmation on Platinums, Golds, Greens, Shampupa & L90e Juanjuis.........all providing my man in SA comes up trumps
Platinum and Gold, yes please, I do like my transistion metals. So many panaque to get, so little time.
Okay they are all settling really well, the L90s are absolutely solid and already in A1 condition. I'm still over the moon with the 350s they are taking a little longer to settle, 2 of the larger ones have darkend up very nicely, the third is still showing white marks around the plates but i'm not concerned about it.
I have a PF & PP member coming down from the North East next week, I'm sure he'll be happy to bring one back for you if you need?
