Hello, I purchased 3 of these plecos. The fish store didn't know what they are either. Thank you kindly.

Hi Brennae,

They look like rubberlip/rubbernose/bulldog plecos, Chaetostoma
L445
.

Nice! Enjoy them.

Cheers, Eric

Thank you! I thought they had the bright mouth for the rubber lipped pleco but the spots threw me off. Mine look just like the pictures for L445 on this site.
Thank you again!
