Please ID my pleco

[gregkarr09]

Hey everyone, So i bought this guy at a LFS as just a common Pleco but Ive had many common Plecos and they usually don't have leopard print like this one does and after a year or so they get too big for the tank this guy seems to stay this size which I love. Any help would be appreciated!

These(L001) only get about 12 inches in a normal tank. Mine is 7 years old and only 10-11 inches. Common plecos can get up to 2 feet.

the gold spot pleco has spots on its body and marble sail fins patterns are joined like his pleco. now they do share a common looking dorsal fin but i really dont think its a gold spot

Sailfins are orange and brown. L001's are yellowish/white and brown
