The Blue Phantom pleco (Hemiancistrus sp. L128) is a beautiful fish from the Venezuelan Orinoco drainage. This fish has a good temperament and doesn’t get as big as other plecostomus, which makes it a great choice for a community tank. There is controversy of shrouding the taxonomic status of the Blue Phantom pleco. It may actually be a color morph of the Green Phantom pleco (Hemiancistrus subviridis, L200), which is found down river from the habitat of the Blue Phantom.
