now these are the harder. first, i had ordered and successfully got my hands on a Tiger Pleco. hes about 5inches right now. http://www.tropicfishcenter.ch/images/Pleco%20Tiger%20Anapu%202.jpg

and last but my FAV... and sorry hes not black/white, but is still a Zebra pleco, yup i said it. costed me $50. but is really nice http://www.amazon-exotic-import.de/Gallerie/L-Welse/Bilder/Peckoltia%20spec.%20Flash%20Zebra.jpg. the shop owner i got him from told me the black/whites go upwards of 250. I settled for this one instead hes a yellow/black and is about 3 inches right now

Hey Monkey,
nice fish!
What size tank do you have?
Those Chinese Hi Fins are a fave of mine,
but I wont buy one cuz I dont have a tank
suitable for housing a 30-40 inch long fish.

these 3 plus all the others are in my 150g tank. odds are from what I learned talking with reliable shops, that it takes a while to reach that length in a home aqarium. and if it does. we'll i'll have to find a aqarium or zoo that will take it.
