Guppysnail Posted September 7, 2021 Share Posted September 7, 2021 I have a pair of longfin lemon blue eyed pleco. Babies are mostly lemon or peachy but about 10 are pure white. amelanistic I’m guessing??? Are these the same as snow whites? I couldn’t find much info on Snow White ancestry. Thanks for the help Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ARMYVET Posted September 7, 2021 Share Posted September 7, 2021 Oh wow...I have one of those Blue eyed lemon Pleco babies. I didn't know that was what it was called. I bought 10 albino longfin BNP juveniles. In a separate bag was 3 "extras" 2 Brown and 1 albino and it was in the batch of extras. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Teach it to come to the food bowl and beg for green beans 😉 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like I said he is in a tank with 12 other juviniles. A few are bigger so it is shy and never comes to the front of the tank to eat with the rest which are all absolute pigs!!! I usually try to put some food in the back just for him but I rarely get to see him well so Im thinking to move him might be better for his health and wellbeing. Thoughts?

I would move him. Especially if he is not coming to eat with the others. Best case you will end up with a gorgeous pleco you never see because it grew up hiding. Worst he gets super stressed I would think. They do grow up as show stoppers and my two will eat repashy from tweezers and always come front to see me. Except now dad is babysitting back to back clutches. I miss my boy 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
