Found this scarlet trim choco plec searching some Japanese online stores. Would love him but no space. Isn't he pretty?

Oooh yeah he is gorgeous!! Ive never seen one of those before!

It's so prehistoric looking

wow, very stunning red color!!

Beautiful fish! And pretty cute too

Wow! Look at the red on him, He is pretty Imogen.

There is a scarlet pleco for sale on aquabid - though not nearly as pretty as the photo you posted!

I'd like a whole tank of these guys. They have so much character and come in all colors! This one was way too pricey-and huge already-how much was the aquabid one I wonder

I am just wondering , how much does it cost?

Well, I just tried to retrace the website and cannot find it. It was large, full grown perhaps and I seem to remember it was a crazy price like 7.000 yen (about 80 US$)It is kind of unique.

Ouch! The one on aquabid is *starting* at $120! Guess they must be a rare commodity... He's not as purdy as the one posted, but here he is if you get a big allowance

Ooh he looks a big one! Big price too.. (starting ?!) Very nice though

Wow, he is beautiful! I love his coloring.

Yeah, he is very pretty - a beautiful colour and I agree with TetraLover, he is kinda prehistoric looking too! It's too bad you can't get him Imogen, he is quite pricey though

you can't house more than one of those because Pseudacanthicus (not Pseudocanthicus as in the link) plecs are fiercely territorial and grow at least a foot in length.

Who could afford more than one? Yikes!

Those are just beautiful… remind me of the blue trimmed Panaque plecs! The high price is because a lot of those are still newly discovered, hard to breed in captivity and as a result are still wild caught.

He would be great in a huge freshwater semi aggressive display!

Stunning Imogen.He's adorable I have a soft spot for plecs

His coloration is striking. I have never seen one, expensive too.

Well, perhaps one day I'll have money and space for a whole army of different kinds of plecs. Glad you all liked the find

he (or she, i guess) is very pretty! i too have a very soft spot for plecs. my lil long john silver (ugh, i finally gave up and adopted my husband's name for him) is starting to show a bit pore personality. i never really realized how many different types of plecos there are and that some can be quite pretty. i've always thought they were neat though. that's the only thing i remember having in our aquarium when i was a kid. i really like albino bristle noses and would like to have one, but i think unless i order one from a lfs i'll never run into one by chance. love those lil sucky faces though

Yep, that's exactly what they are -little sucky faces with beady eyes! I have 2 albino rubbernose and I love them to pieces. Long John Silver is a hilarious name. Mine are called Ben (theres's affleck of black on his tail)and Alli as in alligator..see you later ....on that cucumber probably

i don't know about albinos, but i saw mine change colors in the store tank. he's been pretty much the same here (figures) but i never realized they could pull a karma chameleon!
