Looks good. Do you think you can sell these? Our market is pretty saturated with the more common ancistrus species.

This species is rather hard to get.....for an adult specie you'll pay around 27 - 30 euro.

A shop reserved them all

Well done :) it is a very nice species.

My own group (1 male, 4 females) produce a new baych every time the male is in the breeding tank for more than a day...I have somewhere around 200 youngsters from newly hatched to 5-6 cm. so I am keeping the male seperate for now :)

Unfortunately everyone here in Denmark is focused on Hypancistrus so if I can get 5 euros for a 4 cm. fish I will consider myself lucky.
Best regards,

Hello Rob, i had 2 shops in my mind and Utaka was on my list :d

Can you give me a sign when Utaka has them, i'm very interested.

Do you live near Rotterdam, can i buy 4 of you without interference of Utaka?

Greatings, Walter (ancistrus liefhebber)
