I'm leaning towards H. contradens because of the larger spot size...

Re: Please identify Pleco!
Thank you guys I really appreciate your help, is there any big differences between the L201, Orinoco Angel, Hypancistrus inspector, and H. contradens? I been feeding it zucchini, krill, brine shrimp, and blood worms seems to like krill the most when I see it eat and how much do they usually cost I don't know if that is too much or not. Thank you

Re: Please identify Pleco!
If you look at the species pages ( see the links above or just type in the search bar) there is more specific info on care and feeding. Hypans are carnivores, not so much algae eaters. Prices are all over the place in the US. If you like it, it was worth it.

I think it is L201
