Hello!!!!
Good people of aquariacentral.com, I need your help. On monday, I walk into this fish store just to have a look around. I happen to stumble on a very nice group plecos. The store named them "rubbernose" plecos. Now, the rubbernose plecos I'm used to seeing are brown with little black spots spread all over their body. And the body is chunky, the tail is fat, and the head is larger than the rest of the body. But... the ones I saw in the store had the same body features, but had a different color. They were all black with, I think blue eyes, but I'm not really sure about the eye color.
They were juviniles, about 2 to 3 inches long. There were around 10 to 15 in this small tank. The tank had to be around 25 gallons. The tank's back, and sides were painted a light blue. There was grayish - white gravel and a piece of wood in the tank, and an air stone.
So can you guys help me identify this pleco? Maybe because of the lighter backrounds, this fish chaged colors, or it's a different type of pleco.
And can you provide me with information on this pleco.
Thank you
