Heyho,
I just found a cute little fellow in one of my tanks.
I did see quite a few eggs in this tank like 3-4 weeks ago. But this one is only 3-5mm TL so I think he must be from a more recent spawn.
The tank inhabits C. Habrosus, C. Hastatus, C. Pygmaeus and I think they are as well as some red cherry shrimp.
The last eggs I found were definitely smaller than those of C. Habrosus. Since I didn't have any spawns of the smaller dwarf cories, yet, I assumed it could have been their eggs. But now I am pretty sure it was O. Piribebuy eggs.
Can anybody confirm this is not a dwarf cory but rather a "dwarfpleco"?

Really neat discovery Johannes. Can you get photos from side or belly view? Maybe a picture of the mouth?
Cheers, Eric

He is really tiny and the tank is big will be tough to find him again.
I could try getting some pictures of the parents + tank tomorrow.
