Although the pattern is eerily similar to A. claro, a pic of the mouth would tell, I don't think that is it. I'm leaning more toward . If you look at the second pic, there is a lot of similarity.

Headshape isn't right for Ancistrus sp. "Rio Paraguay".

How about L089
I just got some "Rio Paraguay" from Pier and although the smaller one in the pics looks similar the first one does not
They could just be a cross common BN
I know one of my breeding pairs of commons kicks out some oddities
