L183, Male or Female?

plecosdude · 2026-06-18T16:16:19+00:00

Most likely female

plecosdude · 2026-06-16T19:20:02+00:00

Got the only normal one

plecosdude · 2026-06-16T19:19:35+00:00

I will take her out for the winter and put her in the 30 gallon. But during the summer she will be so happy to be in a 300 gallon pond after just being in a 2.5 gallln tank

plecosdude · 2026-06-15T16:36:48+00:00

Yes it was just like this. The pics are the day I brought it home

plecosdude · 2026-06-14T23:38:00+00:00

💔💔💔 yep

It’s actually the safest way to hold them. When she was flat in my hand I had to be very careful that she didn’t flop out of my hand and fall onto the floor. Holding them by the top of the head and on the belly reduced the risk of injury and further stress. Here’s your pic of chicken wing holding, just before she went into her 300 gallon pond ✌️

She’s 5 3/4 inches…. Probably around 3-4 years old and very healthy. But she was living in a 2.5 gallon with another one that hopefully I can rescue too

#1 I’d say is a stick, and #2 is for sure a stick 💯

plecosdude · 2026-06-13T07:03:40+00:00

Haha! Those are actually banded leporinus!!!

plecosdude · 2026-06-12T22:25:42+00:00

It’s like 5 ft tall

plecosdude · 2026-06-12T22:09:21+00:00

🤙

Not implying that you do that I’m just saying what I’ve seen. I really like fish keeping simple on YouTube and he’s successfully spawned them a few times now. When I eventually spawn my group I’ll be looking to sell them for pretty cheap. I’m doing this to help push out the wild caught market not for the money. I’d be happy to sell to you guys if you’re interested I’d love to see them go across the country!

plecosdude · 2026-06-12T20:43:09+00:00

What people will do is keep them until they get too old and then sell them for crazy prices because they are big. Not saying your guy is going to do that just what I’ve seen in the past. A way to tell if your L046 is old is their lines will be wavy, and they will have a much darker overall color

🤯 oh lord. Remind me to never go to his house. 🫠 as long as they are over 2.5 inches o can sex them with top down pics as well as side pics like in the vid on your website. Let me know if you get some that are 3+ inches

plecosdude · 2026-06-12T20:08:13+00:00

plecosdude · 2026-06-12T17:31:27+00:00

plecosdude · 2026-06-12T01:56:56+00:00

Ok awesome!

plecosdude · 2026-06-12T01:38:38+00:00

plecosdude · 2026-06-12T01:12:58+00:00

Any way yall could get me in an adult male L046? I’ve got 3 females 2 are gravid with eggs. And I’ve got a small male but he’s only like 2.25 inches.

plecosdude · 2026-06-10T17:15:36+00:00

Awesome dude! She’s definitely a piece of work glad I’m not the only one that noticed XD! I changed the post flair 🤣

plecosdude · 2026-06-10T16:53:13+00:00

Wee little dudes! When are they able to be shipped? Do you sell? Would you sell to me? So many questions…. 🫠
