How much did you pay for the orange lasers? I just added three to my existing 7 for $9 apiece from a lfs.

Nice-Did you get them in Saskatoon, or elsewhere?

Ah, yes. After seeing all the pics (I only could see one for some reason) it looks almost like a short-nosed version of C117.

The shopkeeper is unable to provide any information on them. The only information I have been able to find is that apparently in the UK virginiae were sold as ...

Could anyone help my ID this Pleco please? I have a bit of an idea, but would like to hear from you folks.
