The Queen Arabesque Pleco, known scientifically as L260, sparked considerable interest when it was first introduced to the German trade market in 1996. This fish is renowned for its striking appearance, characterized by a mesmerizing pattern of densely swirling white lines set against a dark body color. Notably, its unique markings make it easily distinguishable from the L411 species found in Rio Jari.
