I Bought a RARE PLECO for my AROWANA TANK!

I bought a pretty rare pleco for my arowana tank! The L24 or the Redfin Cactus Pleco is not super rare but it is a pretty uncommon pleco you don't see everyday. The pleco has been doing really well and is mostly active when the lights are turned off as well as feeding time.

There armored scales add a crunch to the tender meat 🤤

I have a rare red pleco

I’ve never seen so many huge plecos before. Amazing! And your pleco is really beautiful.

[@RyoWatanabee]

Thank you so much :)

[@Im_frmthehood99]

Where can you buy big plecos

[@ultimatefishkeeping]

I love your new Pleco, it is beautiful. Those Angelfish are beautiful. Nice Arowana. Thank you very much for sharing. Have a great week.

Thank you for your nice comment!

[@scapesessions9069]

That's a nice L24, great video man

[@RyoWatanabee]

Thank you! L24 is one of my favorite plecos. I love their greenish colored body

[@AyJay.357]

I never laughed so hard in an intro to a video good job😂👍

[@jimmyhfishes]

Very cool footage Ryo...thanks for sharing 👍

[@RyoWatanabee]

Thanks for your support Jimmy!

[@oo-ll4gu]

Awesome video, keep up the great work!!! :D

[@RyoWatanabee]

Thank you Ella Jost!

[@FreshwaterIchthyology]

You might need some more caves for the Pseudacanthicus pitanga they do really like places to hide. I recommend those for breeding different Hypostominae as they tend to be better designed and tighter which the fish prefer.

[@AngelosFishTanks]

Oh wow what a shop 😱. Oh wow😱 amazing pickup 🤭🤭

[@janson534]

Hey, while watching your video, I realized you're staying opposite of me! I'm about to get a rare pleco today too for my new tank!

[@TheBudgetAquarist]

A psychic medium named Steven Rare solved a crime in my city. When asked to give the guy an award, the mayor of the the town handed him the key to the city and said, "WELL DONE MEDIUM RARE!" 😉

[@aquarius9900]

YaY!!! New video!!! Thats a gorgeous Pleco!!!

[@RyoWatanabee]

Thank you Aquarius!

[@GrowingInterest]

The pleco seems to like it :)

[@RyoWatanabee]

Yeah, he likes the pellets

[@leejinxing]

I may have accidentally bought a l001 pleco that is too big for my 10 gallon tank and i am thinking of releasing it unless someone wants it. Any idea where can i release it?

[@clarencepkp8288]

I would recommend feeding ur arowana some mp( market prawns ) instead of pellet food, there maybe changes in appetite. Occasionally u can feed it some bf (bullfrogs ) go pump up the size or sw (superworm) for coloration

[@RyoWatanabee]

I feed my arowana market prawn every day or sometimes every other day. Right now I’m trying out mealworms and there will be a vid on that soon

[@CocoKoi321]

Reason why I love plecos They're so fricking derpy how they act lol

[@VomitOutMyThroat]

Bc they clean your tank

[@moonyoon6232]

The pleco looks cool!

[@RyoWatanabee]

Thank you Kioto! I agree and I love this pleco

[@lifetv7085]

Are you worried about your angels with the arowana its an odd combo but if it works 4 u thats awesome lmao

[@rickrodriguez6675]

Ryo that’s an awesome pleco dude. 👍

[@RyoWatanabee]

Thanks rick! L24s are one of my favorite plecos our there

[@viiiderekae]

Buying fish is the best part of the hobby XD

[@iq940]

For facts sake, a L24 pleco is called a red devil pleco

[@ethanwright5461]

L095, L114, L097, L330, L27 xingu platinum and the blue eye pleco are my favourites of the larger species

[@RyoWatanabee]

Great choices! Plecos are awesome because there’s so many different types

[@ethanwright5461]

@@RyoWatanabee thank you! I agree so much variety!

[@gabrielaquarismo5976]

Aqui no brasil temos desses...... são nossos 😁😁 Eu achei esses dias um L114 por 160,00 Em dolar ai seria equivalente a 32$ Dólares

[@jton1]

Wow he looks so cool. Do you think adding a bristle nose to my 20L would be too much if I already have 5 panda Cory’s?

[@barneystinson2781]

You are already heavily overstocked with that size tank

[@jhwong87]

Hi where is this shop located at? Thank you

[@magnusellinor]

L333 is a nice pleco

[@RyoWatanabee]

Yeah, nice black and white pleco but it stays relatively small

[@thevreikan]

I saw that particular species of pleco offered for sale in one of the local pet stores from where I am before along with some Panaque species.Not sure what the other species was but one was a Royal Panaque.From where I am,the species you got isn't "Medium Rare" but far more rarer because I think there are just a handful of pleco enthusiasts here and most of the aquarists prefer Flowerhorns,Goldfish,or Guppies as well as shrimps.That particular species even has heart-stopping prices due to it being very uncommon haha.But if I were to get a 120(which I am planning.currently saving money right now),a high-end species of pleco would probably one of the inhabitants that I would add.Also,those Eartheaters tho'.Dream fish right there haha.

[@RyoWatanabee]

Oh my! Thank you for your comment. I thought my L24 wouldn’t be so rare because I see them quite a bit in the local fish stores here

[@thevreikan]

@@RyoWatanabee It pretty much depends on the country or the demand for a particular species that dictates if they are rare in the hobby or not though.From where I am,the species that sell like pancakes are basically the nano-fish then goldfish after that.Sone gems pop up sometimes but they're quickly sold out in a short period of time due to how rare they are.Geophagus surinamensis for example in which a particular local fish store has a tank full of juveniles.They quickly sold out in less than a week because the handful of enthusiasts here want to their hands on them as soon as possible before they all get sold.

[@nilanshuroy5530]

How you keep arowana or angel in one tank

Hiiiii. What are the price range of those pelco ?

[@mugglewizard755]

You have a sand bottom tank and I think it’s time you got a pair of earth eaters! They are pretty rare in Singapore. First one I’ve seen in any video or shop in Singapore.

[@RyoWatanabee]

Earth eaters are kind of seasonal I think. Kind or like altum angelfish.

[@SandraLThomas64]

I love angel fish. I have found that they r territorial Maybe remove the two angel fish and put the new and old angel fish into the tank at the same time. Saves on fighting

[@t.c.baquariumfish3423]

Royal plecos. I have 2; both cost me $45 per one

Awesome! Plecos are so cool but they can be expensive

[@JokobZuma]

Jordan Welch lol they are like $5 were i live

[@serviacuario6522]

Variedad de peces muy hermosos

[@StanTheObserver-lo8rx]

I can't prove it..but any two Angels fish raised together? become a mated pair as one changes sex should they both be the same when bought. I looked on google and found others who think the same thing. It seems like my luck isn't that great that I've always got a mated pair of Angels..even when I kept just two. Tetra color flakes? My fish all love that. Only live food tops it for fish excitement. Worth the extra cost. Congrats Ryo on all the quality fish you have. You are better qualified to call yourself King than others on the TUBE.

Ur angel fish will be eaten one day
