Hello Pleco people. Recently I picked up a nice adult L134 female from an LFS that didn't know what it was. It was a steal for under $30 after tax. After getting her into my 120 gal she quickly became my favorite fish, even though I rarely see her. This weekend, one of my other LFS had 5 L 134's stocked and for sale. I picked out a nice male, so I now have 1M/1F. While I have two decades in the hobby, mostly keeping high tech planted tanks and discus, I have very little experience with plecos. I'd like to try and breed these, understanding they can be a challenge.
My question is, am I okay with a single pair, or should I pick up more? With help from the owner of the LFS, we identified the remaing to be either 3F/1M. If I were to add only one more, am I better of adding another Female or are pleco's better off with reverse trio's?
