I got this pleco a while back and it didn’t have a label at the store. It doesn’t look like other ‘common’ plecos I’ve seen (maybe a leopard?).
Can anyone tell from the video I have attached?


Sorry about the poor quality. He’s a night owl :)
 
The "Common plecs" these days are all Pterygoplichthys. This one looks like a Hypostomus from the 'Cochliodon' group. It's a wood eater and must have softish wood in it's diet.
Its hard to be sure from a video... especially that one. Can you get some good pictures of it?

Yes, a picture would be better than this video.
