Picked this little guy up recently. Maybe 2" long, if that.
LFS said it was a standard pleco, which I tried to tell her it was a Royal of some sort. She insisted, so I paid common pleco price for it. It seems it came in with some common plecos.
Either way I've been told by local friends it resembles a "watermelon royal" but I'm not sure.
He's currently happily gnawing on some old driftwood in a 75g and eventually into a 120g
