    City Bowl, please share with use where you found this info. I'm really interested to know if there are any specific restrictions in place.

    okay, lets wait for a response from city bowl. my concern is that I've got various suppliers offering several hypancistrus sp. from Brazil so I need to know before I go and place an order.

    Thanks Henk, I'm aware of the ban on L-46 (Hypancistrus Zebra "Zebra Pleco).

    The comment made here refers to all Hypancistrus sp. being banned from export due to classication and this is what I need clarity on...


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