Its a gold spotted pleco L001, expect it to grow to 12inch+

yeah thought he was, i knew they grew big anyway so he will be going in my 4ft tank once he gets bigger most the sites i seen thought only say 25cm (10 inch) max size

PlanetCatfish gives a standard length of 12 inches, (however Standard Length doesn't include the tail)
There is one for sale at my workplace that is about 16-17inches total length

not a problem if he gets that big anyway as i have another tank,i got him from pets at home who never gave me any indication of size anyway but i know most plecs get big and i did look up sizes and diets on the net first
