Hi there all,

I recently bought 2 of these from my lfs
They were labled as orange marble plecs but i can't find anything
on that name.
Coloring is a chocolate brown with orange patterns, they have orange borders round the fins too.
They look like L001s to me but what do you think?
Any one know anything about them if they are.

Cheers

Roger

I'd agree with L001 Pterygoplichthys joselimaianus, although it seems to remind me of another Plec whos name I am currently trying to remember!

Cheers all

I'd pretty much settled on L001 so its good to see it others agree.
Thought they were pretty stunning even in the shop and they were only £3.75.

They've grown loads in the time i've had them and go mad for any veg that goes their way, not much bothered about algae though.
