Hi!

The first one is a member of the Panaque dentex species group: LDA01/L2/L74/L169

The second look like the Xingu population of Panaque sp aff nigrolineatus
L27c, LDA63...
Cheers

Are you serious? L52 is a Butterfly pleco and looks so much different, that you surely mixed up the numbers. I guess Yann is right, but it is to difficult to tell the exact L-no. if one doesn't get absolutely good photographs (or the real specimens).
