thanks guys. its only ~5" now.

well, its supposed to be a fairly hardy pleco, and has easy enough care- omnivorous, eats algae wafers, veggies, occasionally some meaty pellets...
oddly enough, they can change back and forth between gold and grey, or have splotches of both colors on their body, but they often do not change back to gold when they turn grey.

oh, anybody know the growth rate of these plecs? i cant find much info on them either...
