Hi, I can't seem to find a picture that matches the markings of my pleco. Does anyone have any info on him?? He's still a baby...as you can see. How big will he get??

I am problay totally off but it may be a gold nugget pleco. I may be wrong though lets see what other people say.

He is a Pterygoplichthys joselimaianus. I have one too and no other Pleco is anything like him. They get to about 12in.
Here are a few pics of my boy. He lives with a 3in Rubberlip/nose, 2 Dojo Loaches & a 5in Rainbow shark with no issues.

When we first got him, 2in.
