|  ID Help I got this pleco from a friend who is moving. He doesn't know what type it is. (he called it a sucker fish). Help with the ID would be just dandy! photobucket link http://i307.photobucket.com/albums/n...7/PICT0005.jpg

| Well.......i'm about 99.8% sure that that is indeed a common pleco(also reffered to as a sucker fish).

| Before reading the other comments I thought Common, but then saw Fish Geek response of Gibbiceps looked again at the fins and I can relate to that!

| Ok what I was hoping for was to see the top fin. Is it rather large?? Here are some pics or Sailfins, which is what Im thinking it might be. PlanetCatfish • Cat-eLog • Loricariidae • Pterygoplichthys gibbiceps
