I am just wondering if anyone could tell me what Ls will breed in the same tank together. I have seen 134 and 333 breeding together. I'm not sure if you can put 046 with anything or any other species together. I'm trying to maximise my tank space but I don't want to stop anything from breeding

From what I have read here as long as the L's are from different families they won't interbreed
I know that 333's and 270 cross
And I know that
333's & 080 are fine to breed together hope that's some help?

Most folks I know keep their zebras apart from other loricariiads due to the requirements and high value of zebras especially here in Australia.

You can keep L46s with a variety of other plecos if you just want them for looks. If you want to breed them go species only tank. I keep mine with L174s fry but once the L174 fry get large enough I will have to move them to prevent cross breeding. But I could well imagine they could live along side L211s or L134s without much problems.
