ID this pleco

[davis101]

Advertised as a clown pleco, which is obviously not correct, but I'm not very skilled or experienced when it comes to identifying plecos. Doesn't look like a "common" pleco, or at least the commons I am used to seeing. Any info on it would be appreciated. Thanks

Sailfin Pleco (L-83) (Glyptoperichthys gibbiceps) - if we are getting all technical, lol

Okay thanks. That was my original thought, but the markings didn't match the pictures I was looking at.

They are one of the cheap, common, petsmart-(bigger then I thought it would get) kind of fish aren't they? lol
