That nigrolineatus is beautiful. Makes me miss my old pal all over again. .

Very nice pics and fish

I'm not very familier with guppy types; what are those in the first pic called?

I like your sevs too. How old/large are they?

Thank you for sharing your interesting photos.

Near enough is not good enough, therefore good enough is not near enough, and only your best will do.

Thanks for the replies.

Theresa, the guppies are snakeskin, the design on their bodies did not show up very well with the amount of light I had over them, (besides the fact that my camera isn't all that great). The second type I have heard been called different things like tuxedo or half black fire. I have had the severums since October and they were real little when we got them and are now about 7inches long and about 4inches tall. The royal plec is interesting 9inches long but we are having a hard time getting him to eat anything.

Thanks for the severum info. I bought mine in January and it was very, very small. Three months later and I honestly think it's tripled in size. Nice fish

What is in nthe tank with the royal?

In the tank with the royal is a dojo loach, a firemouth cichlid, the severums, skunk loaches and we just added some emperor tetras. It is a 90g.

What foods are you offering him, and is he eating at all? Was he eating in the store?

9"? Bigger than mine!:%) A sight to behold!

It's not eating? Well what I eventually had to do with my Royal was... separate it from all other bottom feeders. Now it gets all the food it wants. And I can tell it eats them too. How? 'Cuz it's frickin' crap is everywhere the next day.:%)

What foods have you tried? I find it hard to believe that a good, healthy, and hungry Royal Plec would refuse plant matter; on entry into its aquarium after I bought him my Royal had cleared all areas it could reach of algae. Try plant matter if you haven't already, and leave it in there for a while. A good-sized tank won't suffer from a lettuce leaf in it for a day.

And don't forget, Panaque love their wood.

The aquarist is one who must learn the ways of the biologist, the chemist, and the veterinarian.

I have tried the pleco passion stuff, algae tabs (I know he's too big for those), zucchini, cucumber etc.

He has a big 'ol piece of driftwood, he is a little more active around the tank now so I am less worried but still I worry...

Edit: p.s. I do not know if he was eating in the store, I don't think they had him long...Shannen is know for frequenting this store on their weekly shipments to see what new things they've gotten in.
