l46 emulation?

[shamrock]

i'm not very experienced as a fishkeeper (only having some danios and tiger barbs for 6m+). i'm very interested in zebra plecos, but i want to get it right (although there's no substitute for experience).

are there any plecos that can "emulate" the l46 in view of cheaper cost, but similar characteristics and requirements?

many thanks

Any of the hypans will give you a bit of experience. Try L66 or L333 as they are easy toc come by and are a reasonable price for a juvenile
