Hi All.

My LFS received some plecos as . But their colors and head shape don't look right to me. Is this ?

Thanks, Eric

That is a tough one. There appears to be a hint of color in the dorsal and the caudal does not appear deeply forked. I would lean towards guahiborum... But would not bet $20 that my id is correct.

Hi,

based on its relatively flat body I'd say L 122, L 106 should be build higher.
