Need pleco id.

I got this little fella as a gift from my girl. It is in a 75 gallon with 9 peacock cichlids that are all about the same size as the pleco. Any help in what to feed or any other advice would be appreciated.

Here's a picture of the tank. Only thing is that not pictured are 2 huge pieces of what I believe are lace or Texas hokey rock that are at the back of the tank. When I get home I'll take another pic and post it.

Looks like L177..needs higher temp(80) and veggie diet like zucchini.

yeah it is a gold nugget. It needs to have driftwood in the tank to survive so get a little piece of good aged wood and put it in.

Actually they are Omnivores, they need meat n veggie in their diet.

Drift wood are generally for panaque species since they feed on it..

Pretty sure it is not required with GNs unless you want to use it for hiding spots.
