They both look like commons, but the one in the foreground could be slightly different, how long u had them and if their from a shop was they all together as it's most likely a light coloured fish.
 
looks like a common and one of those white n greys coloured ones mrsmithrc has for sale on his site probably wrong tho

Can I have a link, please? :)
 
I'd say both are commons, lighter gravel usually brings out lighter colors...
 
It could... my Severums went from a tank with natural colored gravel (similar color to yours) into a tank with black gravel, and they darkend up within 2 days... Another thought of mine is that the lighter colored one could be a color morph of a Gibby pleco... My Gibby plec has an orange tint to him, and most I've seen are a dry dirt brown with light gold...

if its got an 'orange tint' its not a gibby more likely an L001 :)

But I'm going with commons plecs, I can never remember the names as you generally has 3 species under common, one is Gibby, I'll get the others in a bit and post them ;)
 
Sorry forgot to dig out the names :blush:

Yeah they are definatly both plec under the name of 'common plec' and you should expect them to grow to between 18-24" Your gonna need a big tank, around 200gallons to house both of them
