What am I?

Post by DHarris »

Hi All,

I'm hoping you guys can help me identify my latest pleco.
My LFS had 3 of these, labeled as "Golden Tiger Pleco", which in this case means nothing to me.
All 3 had rather different markings. I was tempted to purchase them all but at the price they were going for and the amount of fish I already have, I decided to just take this one as I found it's markings the most interesting.
To my eye it's a hypancistrus, but I don't know which species.

It's about 1.5". Highly contrasted markings in black and pure white, except for the eye shaped markings on this one's sides.

I appreciate any help.

Thanks,
David
