ID Help: Small Black Pleco with Yellow Spots
Posted: 07 Mar 2020, 17:48
This Pleco was labeled as a snowball pleco when I bought him, but after some research I found snowballs usually have white spots and this guy has distinctly yellow spots. He's about 2.5 inches right now. He doesn't usually stick to the glass on my aquarium so I haven't been able to get a good look at his mouth. I've discovered there are many varieties of black Pleco with yellow spots, but am not familiar enough to identify the distinctions between them. Can anyone confirm if this is a snowball or suggestions on what else it could be? Any tips on how to recognize distinct characteristics I could look out for (in appearance or behavior)? Thanks in advance.
