hey everyone- thought you may like to see my new L135 worm line pleco...who we have named Reid and the changing of my tank to accomadate him.

I spotted him at my lfs about3 days a go, I paid £35 for him. I went back today after talking my wife into it!

I currently have 6 gold gouramis, 8 corys, 4 weather loach, a banjo plec and a fully grown rusty pleco called....you guessed it Rusty!

I posted this picture as rusty's home a little while back- he lived under the oblong plant pot.


I then changed it because some wood i had collected from our local woods had fianlly soaked enough to put in.
So i took out his trusty cave and built a slate and wood system at the other end- don't worry i stuck it all together first! Rusty has taken to this happly, as well as just about all the other fish!

I have also took out the internal filter that comes with rio 180's as i now use an external pump. This caused a major heart attack after i created the worse sh*t storm i have ever made. I posted last night in a panic asking for help from people to try and clear it quicker. I have purchased the pipe cleaner today that you suggested d-mac. Cheers for that. This was the sh... almost wrote the full word... sh*t storm from the thread.



This is the tank after it had been changed around... Reid's home is in the corner build with a collection of wood, slate and stone collected from the beach. I also bought some more plants to make him feel a bit more cosy!



This is my boy... i think his a boy in the bag ready to go in. The picture of his underside is very light but don't worry his not this pale under there.
I'll let him settl ein then take some more pic's. If anyone has any idea what sex he/she is pleaseeeee let me know :)







i hope you enjoyed the introduction of Reid and hopefully you can help me with the sex.:clap::yes::D:):lol::hi:

How much do you pay in oz? There was me thinking what I paid was plenty. Would love to know who else on here owns or breeds them?
