My Gold Nugget :)
- Thread starter Kanta
- Start date
Looks exactly like my L81 which also came in as a L047 Mango/Magnum pleco! I got mine about the same time too, maybe slightly later but I think we have tighter rules and our imports get quarantined for longer.
It looks stressed in the pic as I'd just acclimatised it to the 1400L tank, I tried to get a pic of it out of the water but it wouldn't sit still and jumped straight into the tank, its usually much darker with fine pale yellow spots.

"gold nugget" isn't exactly a scientific term and is used as a common name for a whole bunch of different species...

Only three l-18, l-177, l-81 all look very similar and nothing like the fish the OP posted a picture of.
I already posted what this fish most likely is. Here it is again

They are brought in from time to time and are sold as magnum gold nuggets.
The comment about body shape is correct.
