Please help with identification of these 3 plecos

Post by sbilgic »

Hi All,

I just bought a group of plecos but I am not sure from the species about some of them can anyone please help to identify them. I only have the pictures before transferring them in to the aquarium most of them are hiding now so I don't have pictures inside the aquarium I will try to get more clear pictures if have the chance.

The first one I don't have a clue of what kind it is. It is about 13-14 cm long with tiny white spot on the whole body.

Hi

First one is either L 71, or L 181, spots and head shape dont match L 107.

Second and third could well be what they are supposed to, but could also both represent the same L-Number, almost impossible to say.

Hi,

After doing some more research I was also suspecting of a L181, I will now also research the L71. I still don't have clearer pictures. Thank you both for your answers.
