| Heres a link for the chocolate pleco. If you still have it in the spring/summer I'd take it off your hands. I have an extra 55g I'm thinking about turning into a catfish tank  |

| Yes, Mahem there are lots of hiding spots he can go.
Mike...if all goes well and he isn't picked on I will try to keep him for you. It is hard to tell if he looks like the chocolate (Dawg gave me that link also) he is Albino, and much smaller then the ones pictured so he really doesn't seem to look like them. If I could get him to start raising his top fin maybe I could tell a little better. |

| Thank you! If you find him a home before spring time I wont feel bad if I dont get him.
He looks like a chocolate. about 6-7 months ago a LFS had them and from what I can remember he looks like an albino chocolate. |

| Well it looks like an albino chocolate to me. Very cool looking fish. You have to keep him...You might just need to get another tank...  |

| No I think he is just a common albino!

| It's been sooo long since I've had a small common (my last one was 9") it is hard to tell for me, but if my memory is correct his head is quite a bit more narrow then I remember commons being. Of course I could be wrong and maybe they are not all the same (head wise) his tail also seems a bit different to me....then again, he rarely has it open so it is hard to tell. |
