Please ID my Plecos

[Photoqwest]

I have a Pleco that consistently change colors. He was a dark brownish black when i first got him and now he keeps going yellow and then back to dark. When I bought him he was just labeled Pleco. Can someone please ID Him? First picture was two days ago, second picture was just a minute ago. He will be fully dark by morning.

I have two Plecos, the younger one doesn't change colors only the larger one. They are in with an Oscar and a silver dollar.

Apparently color changes in plecos occassionally occurs in many different species of plecos. See this thread from planet catfish:

Thank you, apparently it is pretty common. That's a relief I was confused because he didn't seemed stressed at all and water parameters are have all been stable and good.
