I'm having trouble finding a name or info on this pleco online. Might be right under my nose but I've never seen one like this and a reverse image search brought up a pintrest post with no identifying information. I followed the website, and its all in another language. I used google chrome to translate it but the photo I have is not on the page. Any help is greatly appreciated!

Hmm, not too many photos on the l60. But from the three I did see, the markings look similar. Nothing is as striking as this as far as color goes though. I hope it’s something obtainable!

And what do you know, LFS has something that looks similar. Owner is calling it a “monster Pleco”

Definitely not a spiney monster. They’re asking $99. I wonder if these will color up like the original photo I saw.

There is no L # from your pleco .. At first I thought it was a gibby until I counted dorsal rays ,,, my guess is Hypostomus jaguar or some version of Hypostomus ? Great looking pleco btw
