I had a couple of these. The common name is queen plecos. i forget the scientific name and L number though. If i recall correctly the ones with thicker white stripes are the females and small white stripes are the males. Its been a while since i had a tank so i forget some info. They are great and peaceful.

They are very similar, however this is not a queen pleco, but an exotic new species
