Hi everyone

I am from the UK and as anyone who's from here will be aware we have a pet store chain called jolleys.

Well I recent went to jolleys and I bought for £5 what I thought was a bristlenose pleco as that's what they had it advertised. I am now beginning to believe it is not a bristlenose pleco. Can someone help identify what it may be. Sorry the picture is dark but he/she hides under the filter all day and only comes out at night so it is impossible to get a picture with the light on.

It is roughly 4 inches approximately from nose to tip of tail but what is throwing me is the red/brown/tan colour.

I am new to the hobby so I don't have alot of knowledge on other plecos beside the bristlenose.

Thanks
