Pleco ID?

[doc3toes]

Wondering if anyone can ID this pleco and give the L#. i think they were called "albino chocolate" when i got them. they're in my 300 and about 4-5". thx.

He could be hypostomus plecostumus or common pleco. Definetely is a species of Hypostomus, so expect him to grow at least 30 cm.

This isn't a common pleco.

What it is, I'm not sure.

It's an albino chocolate pleco. They sell them at petsmart.

Hmmm how can something be albino, chocolate in colour and not have pink eyes........

LOL looks pretty common to me also they get huge!!

Well, i can't see it being a common pleco. i have had them before and this one is staying small. if it was a common pleco i would expect it to grow in a 300gallon tank, and the 2 of the are over 2 years old. as far as being 'albino' whats in a name, i say.

could be a Pterygoplichthys scrophus, maybe albino too (chocolate plec) the eye does look to be pink on my monitor! Grows to around 11" max
