It's a wild caught hemiancistrus subviridis (l200). Measures at 7". I heard they're dificult to acclimate, anything special I should do during the acclimation. I'll post pics after it's in my tank.

L-200 are easy to maintain.. as long as theres food..veggies are important..

I recommend this: Planetcatfish.com you'll be able to find more info on L-200s.. congrats on the new fish!
 
They are not too bad to raise. Just do your regular water changes make sure you have good aeration. Give it a cave and see that no one is picking on it. As zero said plenty of cukes and zuchini. I feed my plecs NLS pellets with the garlic in it. Great fish once acclimated. Mine was always active and in the open. Wish I would have kept it but my L-25 was fighting with it.
