Golden nugets and zebra plecs in JHB

Hey guys does anyone where i can get a few more golden nugets with the yellow tip not the white aswell as zebra plecs.i have looked all over but also with studying and orking have not had mush time to myself so if anyone knows of a place i promise they are comming to a good home

 

Zebra plecs you will only get on import. friend of mine got some us R650 a fish.... they are also banned from export in Brazil so you have to find a breeder

 

also dont pay any money upfront unless you a. know the supplier and b. have seen the fish. i have often seen guys importing "zebra plecs" and then its actually L2, L74s, LDA1, LDA 19 etc

 

Thanks so much henk where is your friends based?ihad a pet shop wo used to have them but for about a year now they dont have them so im assuming that its because of the thing in brazil.i just want two they are so amazin so its worththe buy

 

are you 100% sure they were zebra plecs and not one of the pekoltias?

 

to be honst im not but they had the think white and black stripes if that does help

 

all of the fish listed above also have some sort of black and white line pattern

 

lol than i would not know where ti start hey.what should i look for in a rue zebra pleco?

 

These are true zebra plecs.... if they dont look 100% like that then its not... you will have to google a breeder or i can ask my mate where he got his. you need to do some serious research on them as they are very hard to keep

 

i have done some reasearch into them i a wanting to keep them with my discus so i sould meet all the watter parameters but im not t sure of how compatable they are with other plecos and clown loaches

 

i would keep them in a species tank on their own

 

Ok so do you sugest them and the discus i have or just them?

 

Discus you can keep with fish like cardinals, otos, cories etc, but the Zebras i would put in a tank on their own with a powerful filter as they like some flow

 

alright i can do that well ill get everything ready then take it from there i am not sure if you saw my posting on the scat but im realy looking for some so do you have any suggestions as to where i know the average price range but reali these guys aint easy to find

 

I know what i can keep the discus with henk i was asking would i be able to keep the zebras with them!

 

righteo

 

thanks for the help.ill try take pis if i ever see a type pf zebra and post it and see if anone knows f itsa true or not.

 

great

 

Actually I think all Hypancistrus are banned from export from Brazil now,
as apparently are all non describes spieces.

 

Thanks city im just going to continue to keep a look out hey
