That looks way better than the smooth slate I am used to seeing. Looks very natural and we'll done
Gold spot pleco (Pterygoplichthys.joselimaianus)Here's my "big beauty"! HighFin White Spotted Pleco (that's what I bought her as, though I can find no info on that description, lol).
If anyone has a more accurate name, it'd be appreciated
(I have the canopy off currently, so things are a bit brighter at the surface than they normally are).
Interesting! She does look a lot like some of their pics, but the page on PlanetCatfish indicates that they only get to ~12" - and she's 18" easily (the height of visible glass in the tank is 21") - I actually never measured her like that before And fwiw, her spots are really more white than they show in the pics.Gold spot pleco (Pterygoplichthys.joselimaianus)
Hmm...if that's the case then I'm not entirely sure then hahaInteresting!

Panetcatfish is not accurate on their sizes. I think it's based of of what they hear. Someone on this site had a Pterygoplichthys joselimaianus/L001 up to 16 inches. It could be a hybrid between a common and a L001Interesting!

The one in the picture is a L001That pic of the multiradiatus looks very much like her!
