ZebraPleco.com • The complete Hypancistrus zebra resource

Hi everyone,
I just recently started keeping plecos, first starting with common BN a year ago and then moving onto peppermints. Before I knew it, I was looking for more rare plecos and now I'm keeping colonies of L201, L134, L066 and my favourite the Zebras.
I was lucky enough to get my hands on a breeding pair of F1 Zebs and will be soon adding another female in a weeks time. The male Zeb is MASSIVR I'm guessing about 11-12cm long (its cave is about 5cm wide and its head almost takes up the whole width) and the female is about 8-9cm. As they're wild caught, they're both very shy and seldom come out, hence I had trouble taking decent photos. The female is hanging out the male's cave and I'm hoping for some wrigglers within the next few months. Below are some photos.

Wow he is a nice big boy

Good luck with them and welcome to the forum

Welcome to the site and the ranks of zebra pleco fanatics. One of those fish sure looks like a fat fm

Welcome to the site & good luck with your zebs breeding.

The massive male is always in his cave, I wonder when he goes out to feed.
The female is constantly hanging around on top of his cave, probably checking him out. I think I might get lucky soon.
