I've had it for 2 years and in this time it's grown from 2,5'' to more than 8''...
I now need to buy a new aquarium... So it's necessary that I know how big she will get too buy her a decent tank.

Yeah thanks! The people at planetcatfish told me it was a L023 too and I'm keeping it with guppies!!! Do you know how long it will take before it reach it's maximum lenght?

That is just a common pleco. It will get to be 20-22" long, and can get there quite fast. If it takes more than a couple years to attain 18", then it is being stunted.

Thanks! I was thinking of keeping it in a 200g tank with 6 oscars, 2 rope fish, a featherfin synodontis and a L025, would that work? or will the bottom be too crowded?

that should be fine but watch out for the feathefin becuase they like to suck on other fish
