Mr. Sprinkles you might want to get your eyes checked, and your plecos straight. This is my same l-200, but in the water. It is a female, and I believe the one in the picture you posted is male. I know what it is. Also, (buzz) incorrect, the correct answer goes to kuhli girl. Bushy and bristle are both prefixes that describe a wide variety of ancistrus species. They're very general. The only way to specifically describe an ancistrus is by it's scientific name.

Agreed.
 
*Now I'm starting to remember some names...
L200 stay small and don't grow very fast. I've never seen one over 5" or so. I had one in a 38 gallon for about a year, long ago. They're a bit pricey. Also, they hide a lot. I think you should get a bushynose just because they are more active and don't hide as much.

I looked it up and it says these Get to 10 inches. I really like them but if that is true I can't get one
 
I saw an albino BN Pleco today at PetCo. Only get to 5". Looked really cool and was only $3.99

See NOW it looks like an L200. :facepalm:
I can't call plecos when they're out of the water, apparently.
