thanks Pp, I do believe you're right!

Not 100% sure on the 'common pleco' but sure looks a lot like the pics there. Otherwise a sailfin of some sort. So many different looking pleco are referred to as the common, but one thing that is pretty much a given is that it will likely be a larger variant when full grown.

sure does, that's the closest picture I've seen yet
i think they have it labeled incorrectly as a "common pleco"
i'll go with "sailfin of some sort"
it's a beautiful fish, not shy, not aggressive at all
tank mates are 5 pearl gouramis, a redtail shark, marble hatchets, and a couple of corys
Thanks!

Sailfins grow to 2'!
