I bought 6 of these @ 10$ each 2-3 inches! Because of the stress they're a bit faded, but they all have solid black diagonal stripes on their tails.
So what's the ID verdict pals (besides the L129)?

Look like a pleco from the Peckoltia family, maybe L205 ?

Aquatropical? On Decarie? I use to shop there. Messy store with good selection and good refund policy. Sell people don't know a thing about fish. Correct?

It has it's added benefits. You won't be able to buy such nice pleco for such low price if they would know what they are doing.
Next time I'm in Montreal, hopefully in the summer, I'll pay them a visit.

Im told that L205's have spotted bellies (which mine dont)..after further research, it seems its an L387 Pecktolia Species. I confirm that the PC pictures of L387 better represent the ones I have. I may actually go pick up the last 2 from the store...giving me 8 of these beauties.
