A medium sized pleco, with an attractive colour pattern, which can vary according to aquarium conditions or the fish’s mood. They can be fairly shy and will therefore need a suitable cave in which they hide. Looks very similiar to L066, but L066 has more of a white body base colouration with black lines on top! L333 is also stubbier from head to tail than most other congeries. They generally inhabit areas of fast flowing waters. Like all Plecos, they will benefit from wood in their diet.
