I was trying to get pictures, but he is impossible. lol. He is about 3" long (still a baby), mottled, kind of tan and light brown, and on his head he has small light spots. He doesnt have big fins, and he doesnt move a whole lot. Also his scales on his sides are spikey.
 
hold on im tryin, but his favorite place to sit is behind the filter intake. Ill take him out.
 
I TRIED CATCHING him for like 15 min and finally he foun a hiding spt, and i cant find him ill try again later when i find him.
 
it can be very hard to ID plecos without pictures (sometimes even with pictures if they aren't of the right area), as there are so many, and many are very similar looking to others.

is one at a time.
 
you have any pics of the pleco in the tank, might help because it's hard to tell outside of the tank and the pics are pretty blurry
