Well that's a nice looking Pleco, thats for sure. I'm new to the hobby, so could someone please tell me why Plecos are classified in numbers and letter. Like "L240".

This would do better in it's own thread, but I will give what I believe is the answer:
I am pretty sure that the "L" is for Loricariidae... then the number is for each individual species.
I am open to being wrong about that though as I have never actually asked, and always assumed it was this!
