A colleague is giving away some fishes among them is this pleco which I like to get, but before that I want to know how big it can get and what is the L number for this pleco?

thank you.

Looks like an L114 Pseudacanthicus cf. leopardus to me; I'm pretty sure they can get up to a foot in length, and, as most Pseudacanthicus species are, pretty aggressive with other plecos. Could also be an L600 (Pseudacanthicus leopardus); I believe they're the same species, except the L114 has a lot less orange, supposedly a flatter body profile (Although I don't really know if that's true), and larger "spots" on their head.

+1 for L600.

Great looking fish. Carnivorous. Medium large.

I would like one.

L114 I think the L600 has tiny face dots

Thank you. If it is L600 then I wouldn’t like it, as I found that it can grow up to 35 cm, I have a tank of 33 gallon and it won’t fit in my tank.
