I used to mix the two but i did say "Looks like Adonis could be L155". I guess i should have said Looks like Adonis or could be L155. Anyways I still think they are Adonis, the pics first and second pic looks like it shows their spikes all over and they sure looks like my little adonis when it was only about 2 to 3", only thing is mine had longer lyre tail. OP maybe a clearer upclose pics? The ones you have are blurry, hard for ID.

+1 one or the other. I close up of the top and head on would help to nail it

Agreed, the body shop is more adonis than vampire. If you can get a picture of the mouth too, that will help determine if it is a Vampire (it would have a frilly lip: www.planetcatfish.com/catelog/image.php?species=leporacanthicus_cf_galaxias(l007)&image_id=6912) or Adonis (no frilly lip).

Yeah the first page has a blurry picture of the mouth but you can tell it isn't frilly.
I also took a look right now and no frills.
So I guess Adonis. How much do these usually run for at 4-5 inches?
I wanna figure out if I got a steal, a normal deal, or ripped off.
And I read that it isn't ideal to keep more than one. Is that true?
 
30 to 40$ around my neck of the woods maybe 50$ for a 5 or 6 incher. I think you got some cool Plecos as long as you didn't get taken to the cleaners
 
For 2 to 3 incher here go at about 25 to 35 each, I sold my 9" for 85

Alright thanks for all of the input guys. I really appreciate it.
They're beautiful but I don't have the funding or space to provide a happy home for them.
Thanks again!
 
They don't have adipose fins, so they're Acanthicus, and have spots, so they're Acanthicus adonis.
