I got these two almost a year ago sold as common plecos. Is this correct?
I thought I read somewhere that commons are actually really hard to find and most sold under that name are really sailfins. That has me wondering which type I have. I'm leaning towards sailfin.
I did have to separate them a few months back because they were fighting and hurting each other (as you can see). This is the smaller of the two for a side shot.
Both those pictures are from a while ago. The little one is now 9" and the bigger one somewhere between 10-11" I believe. If that helps with identification at all.
