It has 3 irridescent gold stripes on its face and back as you can kinda see. Also the front half of him is small black spots very close together and the rest of him is kindof like a camo patern.

oh I saw one of those at a LFS here yesterday for the first time, I forgot the name, It might come to me a little later... but i was really interested in him he was about 2-3 inches, then I found out he was like 60$ or so, lol hes very nice looking though, good luck on the IDing him if I cant remember it before someone else does it
 
no it actually looks nothing like those... Ill try and get some pics right now...
 
This is my weird 3 gold stripe pleco and my (L007)Vampire pleco and my Honduran Redpoint snuck in.

Yea NOT a gold nugget... I wrote what the pleco was above the pic. Its a Vampire(yellow spotted 1) Today I looked at (honestly) every pleco on planetcatfish.com and I didnt see anything like it... Maybe its a one of a kind? I doubt that. I gotta get a pic with his fins all out. Never the less Its a cool fish whatever it is.
 
You definately need a better picture. I'm not sure what which L# it may be until you get a better one. The mouth looks really small and set foward on the head. It does looks cool though.
