Aqualog Extra: The Latest L-Numbers

When, 15 years ago, Rainer Stawikowski, the editor-in-chief of the long established aquarium and terrarium magazine DATZ (Germany), and Arthur Werner, the owner of the well-known aquarium fish import company Transfish, invented the L-Numbers, they did not suspect how their idea would snowball. Since then, the armored catfishes of the family Loricariidae (which the L stands for) have become all the rage to an extent seen previously only in the cichlids of Lake Malawi.

Sucker mouth catfishes are given an L or LDA number if they are imported for the aquarium hobby but cannot be unequivocally assigned to any described species. Thanks to intensive collaboration with one of the largest aquarium fish import and export companies in the world, Aquarium Glaser/Germany, we are able to present here the latest L and LDA numbers.

If you have the first edition about L-Numbers (Aqualog All L-Numbers ISBN 3931702014) and all the Supplements published so far, this new book Aqualog Extra: The Latest L-Numbers, will bring you dear reader, right up to date. Paperback with over 300 color photos in 48 pages, and more space in the back of the book for future supplements. A must for every Pleco lover!
