It looks more like a regular L. galaxias than L241 to me. But that might be the camera angle.

We've had both, and yours looks more like a young L. galaxias than an L-241 IMO.

Hi,
Thank you for your replys :wink:
I asked my dealer to tell me the distribution of these Leporacanthicus and he told me that they came from Venezuella along with another strange looking all yellow pleco(not albino).I hope that helps a little.

Thank you in advance

Hi,
Today i realized that i have only one L241,the other two are L240.
I am still trying to get pictures of them because they are afraid of the camera.
