Good afternoon. Hoping someone might be able to help me identify this pleco. It is currently 7ish years old and 8-10 inches.

Thanks in advance for any help you can offer.

Hi Perry,
Welcome to PlanetCatfish!
The picture alone is not enough to ID accurately, but based on the fish size, shape and the small spots on the head, I suspect it's a type of
pleco.
Hopefully someone else can offer a more nuanced opinion.
Cheers, Eric

How many rays does it have in the dorsal fin?

Hi Jools,
I'm not sure I'm counting the right thing ... maybe 7.

Yup, you're doing it right. Should be around 8 for
.
