L066?

I had my work's wholesaler order some "L204s" since they were really cheap on the list.

I thought it was a bit odd, since most places sell them as Emporers or Flash plecos. Anyways, this is what we got in.

I thought it was a Pseudo Zebra pleco, until I compared them closely. The patterning is much too different. I picked up a pair (I hope). My boss told me that they looked like L066 plecos, but when we looked through the L number book we didn't have much luck with a positive ID.

Anybody here have any ideas?

Can you get a picture from the side?

These look like L340's at first glance to me.

I will try to get a picture from the side if they move for me.

We have L129's at work, and when compared side by side, they didn't look a lot alike. The L129's had thinner yellow. I can also add, that these guys didn't really have any nice black like some L129s do.

I agree, although the 340's can have slightly varying patterns and color, thats what I would say also

Hi,
seems to be a L 340 variant. Good example that L 340 isn't allways a dream pleco ;-) In fact, most of the imported L 340 are very hard to sell, so perhaps your fish-dealer tried an alternative way to sell them. ...
