Remarks: The L007 Galaxy Pleco is endemic to various river basins in Brazil. Plecos of the Leporacanthicus genus typically enjoy meatier foods such as bloodworms and snails- but will adapt to a more omnivorous diet in captivity. This fish is often confused with the L029, the true Galaxy Pleco. L007 is distinguished from L029 by a higher dorsal fin, a shorter snout and larger spots (ref: www.planetcatfish.com).
