what is this pleco? It is cca 30 cm large and 3 years old. It is white, but has blue eyes so it isn't albino?

not sure about the blue eyes. If they were real blue I would think a gold version of panaque suttoni but the eyes aren't blue enough for it. The top pic shows pink eyes which is an albino.
It lhas nice long pectoral fins
If it costs lots of money then it could be a new gold form of something else but I would say it's just an albino or gold version of the normal pleco. Most of the other plecos aren't readily available in the gold/albino form yet.

Well the first pic is taken with flash that is why his eyes look pink. It has blue eyes in reality, that is why I was intrigued cause I have never seen blueyed pleco before and as far as I kinow albinos can't have any other colored eyes than red/pink...

hm, but I don't think he is panaque suttoni because he is big...

So a common than?
