Nothing wrong with a 'Common' pleco. 
They dont cost a fortune, they dont hassle your other fish, they are grow big and impressive, whats not to like ?
But yeah.. I still think it's a P. Pardalis. I have 2 myself, but they are only 4" babies.

It is not a common that's for sure.
The eyes are more like those of Adonis Pleco but not the tail.

It is a common. It is a Pterygoplichthys species, which would make it a common pleco. Common pleco covers many species, and genuses. Adonis, which are an Acanthicus species, have no adipose fin, very prominent odontodes, and a very low profile.Enmascarado;1280385;1280385 said:

Okay but it's not the so-called common Liposarcus pardalis.
By the way here is a good link with many fancy 'plecos' http://www.plecomadness.com/gallery.html
I don't particularly like that site for it's photos. As far as the species, it does look to be Liposarcus pardalis, formally known as Pterygoplichthys pardalis.Enmascarado;1284736;1284736 said:
