[LORENZO]

You can read a lot of info on Zebra plecos here

They are suaully very hard to geta hold of and the best way is usually to contact a breeder. The breeders usually have a que and you might have to wait 6 month or so before your order is filled.

Btw I see you will likely makethe bronze activity award level today. Don't forget to request it so that you recieve it tomorrow.

[COLOR="Blue"] A medal??? How does one request that? Did you look at the pic of my red melon in the member gallery? I want to know about the coloration of that fish? Is it what they call a true red melon or a mix? I want to breed it eventually. Right now i have A blue diamond and a turquoise that are breeding. Today i set up a 75 gallon breeding tank for them. Thanks for the help with the Zebra. But i am reading that they are finicky eaters and hide. Can't they live together in groups? But i only want one. I have no idea what they cost here. Perhaps 75$. I do not know of a breeder but the fishmann i usually deal with might bring one in. ARe they extremely shy if kept with peaceful fish? I have also heard they can be not always but they can be nasty!

I would expect that you have to pay 250-500$ but you might get lucky.

I do not feelcompetent enough to identify yor discus strain so I will leave that question to someone else.

Regarding how to request the award. Please see my answer in the other thread.

Lorenzo......Click on Awards/Medals forum........scroll down to Bronze Activity where it says 250 posts (make sure you get the right one) and then click on REQUEST alongside of it. And then be patient as William will give you award on the day for handing them out. It does not happen that moment.

What you should do is R. click on your pictures in the gallery, check "save picture as" and save it to a file on your desktop or in your picture file. That way we can see your photos without having to go in search in the gallery albums all the time.
