Well, I decided I'd like start a thread documenting my colonies growth. I plan on updating this thread often, so I hope someone will be interested in it. These guys are growing like weeds and hard to capture in still photos so I'll sprinkle in a video or two as well.
Starting with this one i just took:

And heres a few pictures I just took, of the 50 or so these are the best.

This is my L190 Royal Pleco

I know they are from Brazil, but I have always loved these plecos. He just hangs out around the drift wood and keeps to himself.

Update

So my tank is going great. Healthy and lots of growth, except for one guy. He is less than half as big as the rest of the colony. But, he is very active and eats with the group and is not bashful or reclusive. He swims with everyone and gets chased and is a active member of the community. He is just small, I'm wondering if anyone else has experienced this. You can see him in the last photo, he's the little guy.

Yes I have experienced this before and they do end up catching up in due time. Just takes them a while. The other ones look HUGE!
