Never called it a leopard pleco or an L-114;). I do agree with you that it is an L-600.
Psuedacanthicus Leopardus= L-600
Psuedacanthicus cf. Leopardus= L-114 (as far as I am aware)
It is about 9.5" if you look at some of the full body shots it is next to the wall of the tank and you can use the wall of the tank for reference. The tank is a 55 gallon. 48"x12"(It is not it's permanent tank)
I almost picked up another little L-114 to go with the other L-114 juvie I have when I went to pick this guy up but I figured I spent enough $$$ for one day.

Hahahah i suppose i should have checked out planetcatfish first =P it is obvious that i don't know my plecos that well. But great find - yeah, my L-60 is similar size as well. Not so shy, but my L-114 is puny and hides a lot (i am biting my nails cause i am not sure if it is eating) - but he is still alive so there must be enough arowana left overs to fall to the bottom.

If you don't mind, can you PM me the price for your L-600 and L-114 baby?

<sigh> ... i got two more (final?) plecos to receive then enough of plecos i think

I also have noticed the L-600s being much less shy than the L-114s. And you got mail;).

Thanks. Me neither. That's why I spent 8 hours in the car yesterday.lol I live in upstate NY and drove to New jersey for this one. My other one I traveled 4 hours in the other direction to Ohio to pick up. Here's a pic of my other one. This one's pushing 11" now

Glad to see he's doing good. And that's a nice pickup.

You ever going to get a scarlet? Or are they to similar for your taste?

He's doing great Koop. After you posted on my other thread asking how big he is now, I really started looking. I would say he has grown about .75" but has filled out a lot.
I LOVE the scarlet, but I have decided to use most of my bottom dwelling space for one species since I found this latest L-600. I thought Ohio needed a playmate.lol At some point I will try putting them together.
