I have a pleco that I just got but I'm not really sure of the species. I would like to know so I can take care of it properly. It's markings are a light tan color but I can not really tell if they are dots or not. it is only about 2 1/2 inches long right now. Anything will help.

thank you guys for the help. I was leaning towards that one but the dorsal fin didn't look that big.

Not yet, but it grows pretty quick because it is a voracious eater. It starts to look really stunning around 12cm. Good luck!

what would be some good things to feed my L001 Pleco. I do not know if this matters but he is still a juvenile.

Fresh zuchini and potatoes are fovorites. While, sinking tabs and occasional fresh prawns are also well accepted.
