Can anyone identify this pleco for me? I think it's a common but I'm not sure. It's my girlfriend's and its in a 20g tank, so I'm kind of hoping its not lol. Sorry about the bad pics, he wasn't cooperating.

nope, i cannot identify him from these pics.
but if i had to make a guess I'd guess a it's a baby leopard pleco.
how old is the pleco?
i hope i'm wrong though, for a leopard pleco will need a BIG tank soon enough.
it's growth rate will give it away...

He is not very old, she has only had him for a couple months. Sorry about the pics, I'll try to get better ones but he is a little shit.

then our guess may be right.
better prepare your friend that she'll need a bigger tank for him alone.
It may take some time, but he'll need a 6'+ tank to thrive once he starts growing

Yeah well I doubt that will happen, she will probably re-home him.

I'd suggest getting her a big tank, just so the pleco can grow to it's full potential.
Tell her he'll love the extra swimmingspace.
