Hi Alex, i agree with you, that this individuum isn't a member from the panaqolus maccus group. It is a member of the tiger pleco group, but until now this group is just known from the amazon basin, and not from the orinoco basin, where the members of the panaqolus maccus group are the only known panaqolus. please check the origin. Maybe the importer or wholesaler has mixed them with some other panaqolus from another import.
Cheers Andi
