Need ID on three Pleco's!!
Posted: 23 Jul 2008, 08:27
Hello everyone!
This is my first post. My name is Veronika, I'm from Montreal, Canada. I'm the new owner of three Pleco's. I wanted to buy another (ONE other) fish for my Aquarium, but now I'm "stuck" with those three. Long story short, if i didn't take them in they would get killed. (I know I only have a 10 gallon for now and no proper equipment, it will come I promise, I change the water once/twice a day COMPLETELY, with my HANDS, I'll get my stuff this week and I'll try to get a bigger aquarium).
I was told one was a Albino Chocolate Pleco, and the other one a L001 Goldspot Pleco (the one chilling in my hand) and the third one is a "common" Pleco. These are all the pictures I was able to take. Some pics are BAD quality, but I really did try. The "common Pleco" is REALLY hyper, VERY active, so he's VERY hard to take. The rest are alright. I took pics when I did the water change in my tank (I put them in a smaller tank).
Thank you for your help. I tried searching online, but some of them all look alike and there's a LOT of different types of Pleco's.
Here are more pictures. I took a ton so if you want to see more you can go directly to my photo album (feel free to roam around also). Ohh and the pic where he/she is chilling on my hand, he's IN the water, I think he just super loves me!!
Some pics were cut for some reason when posted. Here is the direct link to my online photo album :

Thank you, Veronika, for the pics and the post... I've got the same "chocolate pleco" and was having a very difficult time with the identification, but just couldn't snap a clear enough shot to ID.
