L95 Orange Cheek Pinecone pleco

The Orange Cheek Pinecone Pleco, also known as L095, is a unique and sizable pleco species that can be found in the tributaries of the middle Amazon in Brazil. Its distinctive appearance and scarcity make it highly desired within the hobbyist community. In its natural habitat, this pleco typically inhabits sediment-rich white water rivers, often near substantial accumulations of driftwood or submerged logs. Remarkably, in aquarium settings, they demonstrate hardiness and adaptability. Unlike other large plecos, they generally exhibit compatibility and peaceful behavior when housed alongside conspecifics.
