Whatever drugs you're on, I would suggest you stop immediately.

I thought it was a trick question to begin with, I know its a common bristlenose, and I know it has no L number...
I mean even the picture says bristlenose on it

I admit i didnt see the text on the bottom...
but i was referring to L-001 Pterygoplichthys joselimaianus

best of luck to u.. they are nice pleco.. but borderline common...

 

[krisisdog]

Are they seriously just borderline common in the US? Theyre a dime a dozen here..... I've got several through my smaller tanks as well as the much rarer L183 (peppermint or starlight).

L001 is a fair whack different to the bn dude.
