Just bought a tiger catfish, which L species is it?

Post by Monsieur_Pleco »

Hey guys and gals! I just went into my lfs to purchase a king Tiger Pleco, but I was sold a Tiger Pleco. I asked the owner if he knew which L number it was and he guessed L333. Does it look like an L333 or is it L066? Thanks! Here is a photo of it while it was acclimating to my tank:)
