This is most likely Parotocinclus spilosoma. Have a close look on it, they usually do not do well in fresh tanks.

Nice Tank.
Cheers,
Tina

Thank you Tina for this information :)

He has been in the tank for 2 days now and seems quite happy and busy, i will keep an eye on him though.

Thanks again

Guill
