Re: what pl*co is this??? And what's it worth???
To me, it looks like an L333 (yellow kinger tiger pleco). I've never seen one in person. At thatfishplace, it's priced at $60: http://www.thatpetplace.com/pet/prod/246986/product.web
Another possibility is that it sort of looks like an L204 (flash/emperor pleco). Are the scrawls/lines yellow or white in color? L204 is yellow lines on a black background. But the lines seem too close together for L204 (which is why I think it's L333). I've seen them for sale at LFS from $25 to $75. I think $25-$35 is the normal range. See http://www.thatpetplace.com/pet/group/7062/product.web

It is crazy how many plecos look so close to one another.I think it is a L129?Very pretty fish.

How large is it? If it's 1.5" or so, it's probably an L260 Hypancistrus sp. Queen Arabesque. Size to use as a reference is definitely going to affect the patterning. It's definitely not an L333 or an L204, IMO.

Duplicate thread of:

Different answers, but I personally would say L129/L340.
