  | Fish at the lfs ID I stopped at the lfs yesterday and the owner was showing me a free fish he got. It came in a shipment of live rock that he had ordered. Its in one of the tanks not for sale, hes never seen one like it and neither have I. It almost resembles a fresh water plecostomas. About 4 inches long brown in color its got a suction cup type mouth. Also he splashed his finger in the tank and it came right up to him and suctioned itself to the glass and sat there while he pet it with his finger. Its so ugly its cute. I was wondering if anyone has seen one like this or has any idea where to look? Ive been wandering the internet and found nothing yet but id like to find out. _________ karla  75 gall, 80 lbs sand, 110 lb lr, 10k pcs, atinics, emperor 400, prizm skimmer, hagen and maxi jet powerheads |
