Cant really help you but the bottom pleco could be a L182 Starlight Pleco?
 
the bottom one dosen't seem to be a l182, its got red tips to its fins rather than a white band
 
let me know when you find out what the bottom one is i have the same fish :). planet cat fish site has loads of bn plecs listed but not had a chance to look through them all
 
Have a look here:

For the bottom one there is 2 that come to mind.... ancistrus rio ucayali and ancistrus hoplogenys (L59).


The first doesn't look a well plec lol, not entirely sure why i think that but it just doesn't quite look right?. The best guess i coulc come up with would be ancistrus claro (LDA08), pattern seems to correspond but colour is slightly off but he could just be young and a little stressed but that would be the closest match i can think of :good:

Better pics would probably be best because i really cant seem to make out any defining patterns :unsure: .
 
thankyou from looking at the plecs you suggested

L59 look like the second one and

LDA08 looks like the first one, that's currently approx. 1 1/2 - 2in

ill try and get some better pics up
