QUOTE(antzz @ Oct 3 2013, 02:02 PM) Hi there. Welcome. Things will get more lively and fresh if u can provide pics (or even vids) of ur tank. BTW the normal dbkl black fish is called pleco (plecostomus) in general. Got many types of plecos under this species. Lots of info from the net, wiki also got http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plecostomus Happy reading  *Honestly ur tank is too small for the gar. U'll need a bigger tank in no time soon, bro. that's a nice pleco. mine is only the usual black with some corak on it's body. btw still figuring out on how to post the pics since im not good with computers. haha. i did post the link to the pics thou. thanx for the advice. still collecting enough money for a bigger tank ! i need to get it soon or sadly need to let go my gar

QUOTE(aimank_88 @ Oct 3 2013, 06:46 PM) Cool. I have a spotted gar myself! Nice eh. Btw, u should get a 4 feet, its getting crowded. I have a friend wanting to sell his, but its a bit worn down. I think he wants to sell em cheap. real real nice  have a pic of the aquarium? how much is he selling? worn down 4ft is much better home than a 2ft tank.

QUOTE(aimank_88 @ Oct 5 2013, 05:03 AM) Selling at RM80 as is.. PM me for pickup location if ur interested. Btw, i think its height is not 1.5ft as the usual 4ft dimension. A bit less. (Just a guess, might be wrong) Attached pics: thanx for ur suggestions bro aimank_88. but i saw at my LFS selling new ones for 90. anyway, thanx again man
