I know that these kind of questions are a pain but I need a possible ID on a pleco I saw in my lfs today. It was labeled as a butterfly pleco but it doesn't look anything like the pics in the cat-e-log here on site. This fish supposedly stays pretty small, has the body shape of a typical pleco but the colors are amazing. Background color is a dull orange with dark brown spots and it has "horns" in front of its eyes that are fairly large. Kind of like a rhino. Its eyes were more like a cats eyes than a fish's eyes. I hope this is enough to generate at least some ideas on what it could be. Thanks.
