i feel dumb for asking but why are plecos named with L and a number? L25..ext ext...

 

[zadsham]

I even asked the seller if he was sure this is a L-025 and his answer was yes. I strongly believe this is a L-114 ( Leopard Cactus Pleco ) as I have both plecos and my L-025s ( Scarlet Pleco ) have a solid dark body and NO leopard spots.

The L stands for Loricariidae. Those numbers were invented to keep track of all the new species being discovered at the time since it would take longer to issue scientific names for all of them.
