 | Clown Plecos - 2 for $5 |
tetratech  Ultimate Fish Guru Posts: 4241 Kudos: 1074 Registered: 04-Nov-2003   | I just went on my monthly "Save a fish from the local chain pet store" run and came back with two clown plecos for $5. They never know what they are so they sell them as common plecos. My Scapes |

| tetratech Ultimate Fish Guru Posts: 4241 Kudos: 1074 Registered: 04-Nov-2003 | I figure a clown pleco is usually between $7 and $10 a piece. Most LFS near me know the difference, but the chains almost never bother to find out. My Scapes |

I'm currently in the market for a Royal. They have a baby (about 2 inches long) for 29.99. I just might buy it. |
