    L294 Sucunduri Galaxy Pleco (Leporacanthicus sp. L294)

    Price range: $89.99 through $249.99

    A rarely seen relative of the more common L240 Galaxy or Vampire Pleco, the L294 Sucunduri Galaxy Pleco originates in the fast-flowing waters of Brazil’s Rio Sucunduri, a tributary of the Canumã which flows into the Rio Madeira. They have an irregular pattern of large, pale yellow spots against a black base color and with age they often develop into unique larger blotches. Like most plecos in the genus Leporacanthicus, the L294 are primarily carnivores, and prefer protein rich foods.
