Pleco identification

[SadSoyBeans]

So ive posted this earlier, last year I think, and it was identified as a female bristlenose pleco. But many were unsure because of the poor camera angle. Im pretty sure it has 2 bristles on its nose.
Its pretty rare that I actually see it so I cant take pictures of it often.

Old pic


New pic (sorry if its low quality the pleco is very shy so i have to zoom in)

By the way the white on its side towards the back of it, thats on the glass not on the fish.

And also i dont know why this is in the aquatic reptile section, how can i move it?

the 2 bristles on its nose are the nostrils by the looks of it ...its not a bristlenose either well i not seen any that looks that markings how big is it
