This is not my fish but there is some debate in a FB group about its I.D. - it resembles Leporacanthicus triactis (aka three beacon) but it is believed it is not (teeth have not been confirmed - but it is seemingly the only similar-looking pleco)

What a weird fish. Looks more like a

Hypostomus

(similar to the Cochliodon types) to me, (maybe a

Panaque

(schaeferi?), but not likely).

Cheers, Eric

Yes, that's a lot like

Panaque schaeferi

- the black gravel makes what is also a young fish look atypical but perhaps it is

L229

.

thanks - I would lean towards the L229 just due to the dorsal markings - will pass this along
