The catfish scene here in KL is a sad state. There are only 2 suppliers (I should say importers) bringing in some of these a little bit more exotic plecos. To view/purchase these plecos u would be visiting Aquatics International (AI) in Subang (off the old airport road) or Qian Hu's (QH) pet family branch in Klang.

Even the stuff brought in are the lowest of the lowest rung plecos, these are the cheapest of the cheap on the overseas expoerters list.... Anyhow, this is what's available at Aquatics Internationa: Peckoltia pulcher, L168 Dekeyseria brachyura, L136b Hyspancistrus sp "yellow spot", L201 Hyspancistrus inspector, L128 Ancistrinae sp "Blue phantom", L191 Broken line Panaque, L330 Watermelon panaque (big, and no full spotting), some flyer cats from previous shipment, some ancistomus sp also left overs.

Qian Hu has some tiny Acanthicus adonis, Panquolus albomaculatus, and another 2 types of which I have yet to positively ID.

.... IF you will be here in KL this coming weekend, there will be a heap of rare cats to oggle at in Damansara Uptown. These are specially imported and not available to other retailers (unlike the catfish listed above, of which any retailer can buy from these 2 importer/wholesalers). There are 9species of rare apistogramma, 8species of Loricaridae, 8 species of exotic corydoras, some wild dwarf cichlids and some giant girrafe cats.

PM me for further details.
