Aquarium Advice Addict
Here is the deal. I was browsing through the classifieds last night when I came across an ad that basically said: 55 gallon tank with hood, 2 lights, stand, heater, sponge filter, an 8 inch pleco (common I am assuming), 4 rasboras, some other unknown fish, and a zebra pleco. They wanted $100 OBO so of course I gave them a call.
My question is, how many different types of "zebra pleco" are there? I think I remember at least 2, one of which I know can be pretty expensive (upwards of $200 each on aquabid) and I think the others go for about $50 if I am right. I am guessing that it is the less expensive one which to me would still be a great deal. The type of zebra pleco in no way is going to make or break this deal for me if they still have the tank but I need to know how many types there are of "zebra plecos" so if anybody knows, please tell me. Thanks in advance.
For plans for the tank, I think I am going to wait until I see what the "unknown" fish are that come with it but I pretty much plan on getting rid of the 8 inch common pleco and rasboras to start with either way. I may use it as a discus tank or simply for more room for my GBR's. (JChillin is prolly laughing at me right now LOL). I may keep the zebra pleco but I guess that all depends on what I plan on doing with the tank. How large do each species of zebra pleco get? I am off to try and do some research on them.
