Disyllabic words ending in -cus have both pl. dat. and pl. abl. -ubus and not -ibus. You may find the form "lacubus" here, for example. This rule is also cited here: Wikipedia: Latin Declension. --81.34.242.50 17:51, 27 February 2013 (UTC)Reply

Still, the declination of lacus is on this page just horribly wrong. The plural of lacus in dative and ablative cases is not lacubus but lacibus, plain and simple.

@Sjlain: Lewis & Short say lacubus is more common. —JohnC5 06:39, 7 May 2017 (UTC)Reply
