Please ID my Pleco

I need help identifying this Pleco, I purchased it and they told me it was a Colombian but I don't think it is... Thanks

Looks like some type of peckoltia.

No clue which one I'm not too familiar with these guys

my guess would be Peckoltia vermiculata L-02 .

L-002 is a Panaque, not a Peckoltia and "Peckoltia vermiculata" doesnt exist...

I'm sayin its either L243 or L080 but another pic would be nice.

Regardless of what he is he is a very cool looking pleco and very interesting. What part of Florida did you get him in?

You might want to pay attention to his head, it either has a parasite, injury, or an infection.
