Is it a new addition? It looks very light considering the dark substrate? But IMO looks like a young
, though more (brighter) pics may help confirm.

The parallel spots on the caudal peduncle and small spots on face remind me of
. But I'm sure there are other similar
Hypostomus.
Ha! @Dave Rinaldo I needed to do the same thing as you - crop and lighten the pic to get a better view. What surprised me most was that now I see a cory in the background.
If so, then this is a small pleco!

Yes a brand new addition, so he/she is very light. I suspect Hypostomus as well, but I'm not sure which specifically.

To me, it looks like an Ancistomus snethlageae (L141)

Does look similar...it doesn't have the white trailing edge to the caudal fin seen in
, but that's not to say it's not visible in the photo.
