Peckoltia Sp. "Rio Momon"???

Post by Storm »

Hello all...

My first post here. :)

I bought one of these little guys last weekend. At the time, I was told his common name was Rio Pl*co. I went back today to check out the name written on the side of the tank. Peckoltia Sp. Rio Momon.

He looks similar in coloring to L202 but has very pronounced dark dots on his head.

Any help without a photo?
