Thanks for that info. Now i have another question... While i was doing research i found that L27s also have letters next to them. Some are L27a l27c etc. is this pleco pictured any of those or is it a straight l27? Or what? Lol
Again thanks for the help

How anyone can identify without seeing the angle of the teeth is beyond me! L190 has a more acute angled row of teeth, <90*, L27 has a wider >90* angled row of teeth.

That fish is Panaque nigrolineatus (L190/L330), not any of the Panaque armbrusteri complex.

I don't mean this to sound glib, but if you see enough, you just can.

I agree with Matt, sometimes you can just tell by the color etc
