OK have had this guy for awhile...got him in a tank deal.

About 6-7 in long and has an orangish-pinkinsh-tanish color.

Any ideas?

Go over to planetcatfish and look through the "L#" pics. A good place to start.

He looks like what they sell at Petsmart as a Chocolate Pleco, it's like a different variation of the common pleco.

I would guess albino something or other, but no pink eyes.

Seems the white-ish/pink-ish color is natural.

It's an Albino Chocolate Pleco, an albino version of the common.
