    FS: L483 “Coral Prince Pleco” – Breeding-Sized Adults & Juveniles – Silver Spring, MD

    Hey everyone,

    Due to an upcoming move, I’ll be taking a break from the hobby and need to re-home a large group of my L483 “Coral Prince" Plecos. These are a very striking Panaqolus species, similar to the more commonly known L397s — but they’re far less frequently seen in the hobby. These guys LOVE driftwood, definitely make sure to have a healthy amount for them to chew on.

    Pricing (offered cheap to find homes quickly):

    • 2–3 inch juveniles$20 each
    • 3–4 inch subadults$30 each
    • 4+ inch adults (breeding size)$40 each
      • I can attempt to sex these—most should be sexable at this size.
    No minimum purchase required — though I do have a good number available, so feel free to build a group.


    Pickup Only:

    • Located in Silver Spring, MD, near Holy Cross Hospital.
    • I’ll have them pre-bagged and ready when you arrive.
    • (Willing to meet somewhere if you buy 6+)

    Photos (attached below):

    1. First picture shows one of the adult parents when I received it (representative of my current adults).
    2. Remaining photos are representative of the juveniles/subadults.

    Feel free to reach out with any questions. I'm reachable on here or at lucashirsch9@gmail.com.

    Thanks for looking, and I appreciate your help in getting these rare beauties into good homes!

    Tanks for the taking

    Greetings,

    I am hastily emptying my walkout basement for construction (origin story: a water change gone wrong many years ago! Lol) and need to move some tanks asap. I’ve already moved the fish.

    - 90-gal.
    - 120-gal. (2’ x 4’ footprint)
    - 75-gal
    - 29-gal.

    (There’s also an Oceanic 135, if anyone is that brave . . . so heavy.)

    The larger ones all have stands of some sort (one metal, one purchased, one constructed).

    Also, a bit of rock (some purchased, some collected), fwiw.

    I’m off Montrose Road (exit 4 on 270) in Rockville. Looking at a Sunday-Tuesday a.m. timeframe.

    Thanks,
    Steve
