L240 Galaxy / Vampire Pleco (Leporacanthicus cf. galaxias) - Live Fish  The L240 Vampire Pleco (Leporacanthicus cf. galaxias), also known as the Galaxy Pleco is a visually striking freshwater catfish native to the fast-flowing rivers of South America, particularly the Orinoco and Amazon River basins. It’s named “Vampire” due to its small, fang-like teeth—though it's totally peaceful toward most other fish. This pleco is best known for its dark, almost black body covered in bright white spots, resembling a starry night sky, which gives rise to its “Galaxy” nickname. It can grow up to 9–10 inches (23–25 cm) and has a lifespan of 10–15 years when cared for properly. Quick Profile: Size: 9–10 inches Temperament: Mostly peaceful, but territorial with its own kind Care Level: Intermediate Tank Requirements: 40+ gallons, caves for hiding Diet: Carnivore-leaning omnivore (sinking pellets, meaty foods, veggies) Because it’s nocturnal and prefers dim lighting, it thrives in tanks wit
