Default L173 odd ball

Hi I recently got 10 pcs of L173 pleco. They are all between 1-1.5 inches. All are normal looking except one odd ball. It has spots on it. Can somebody tell me if it is an odd L173, sick or different species? Below is some photos.

It does not look like L173, probably another species.

This odd one is together with a batch of L173 fries. I also don't know how another species will mix in together.

Sorry TS, but i think those plecos that you've gotten are not L173.
