Peppermint plec

[Rick]

Hi I got this as a peppermint plec. Is it from the ancistrus spp?
Any idea of L No?
Cheers

Hard to tell from that shot. Kinda looks like could be Psudolithoxus anthrax.

Peppermints are typically Ancistrus but I've almost any white spotted black plec has at one time or another been refered to as a Peppermint so its tough to say exactly. Any chance for additional photos? From other angles?

I'll see if I can get a better shot, the tanks a bit old and scratched though and he is a bit elusive.

Im with Lornek seems to be Psudolithoxus anthrax. Far to compressed (flat) to be Ancistrus and the spots to bold.

Planet catfish has it down as L235 - pictures on there match my fish.
Thanks for the info.
