Any info on vittata plecos

[Fishnerd360]

I have a vittata pleco and I'm wondering about any info on them since I'm not familiar with this species of pleco?

I have three of them in the mix with the rest of my smaller plecos.

If what you were sold is a peckoltia vittata; https://www.planetcatfish.com/common/species.php?species_id=75

I’ve seen a lot more plecos in shops mislabeled as vittata than actual vittata.

I think I have a actual vittata, it was $60.

Sorry for the bad photo, he's under some driftwood.

That appears to be some form of Hypancistrus, not Peckoltia Vittata.
If you can take a clearer picture it’ll be easier to confirm.

Looks like Hypancistrus L129.... but better pictures would be helpful.

Take care,

Ok, I will try when he is out of hiding.
