RE: zebra pleco

["Holly" <holly@ourglasshouse.com>]

It sounds like Barbie is pretty inundated with requests for zebra's as it is
so I thought I'd let you know that Blue Sierra in Issaquah
(http://www.bluesierraexotics.com/) gets zebras in quite regularly.  They
had one in last week selling for $80, I believe.  I would also love a few,
but I don't have that kind of cash to spend on fish at the moment :)  How
exciting to have a pregnant female though!  I have done quite a bit of
reading on breeding them and understand that it's no easy task.  Good luck,
Barbie!  You are breeding some wonderful fish.

Hi Susan, 

Not yet.  I have a colony of them that I'm working with, and hoping to
spawn, but no fry as of yet.  I just got moved down here last May from
Anchorage, so basically everything is just getting settled in enough (me
included) to really work on spawns.  I have 3 females full of eggs and my
mentor says its just a matter of time at this point.  I hope so.  I have a
waiting list for dozens of them already.  Noone can seem to find any!

  Hi Barbie:

  I was wondering if you are breeding the black and white striped plecos.
Not the arabesque, or the Royal, but the other one. Not sure what it is
called. Has zebra-like stripes.
