My BN are breeding but need id please

Post by ClearSky57 »

Hello:
I have a group of small ancistrus, that I got as babies at a local auction, and threw them in a tank and forgot about them ....
well male was guarding eggs this morning and now I would like to make sure about iding them.
hope these pics are suitable..
the length on the male is about 3" (the pvc tube is 1" diameter) and he seems like the largest....

I did look at the check this first thread, but I am not sure....
this fish seems to be lower profile, ie.. flatter than those on the cf thread.... also much finer spotting but I know that can be varients... i appreciate your input..
thanks

Here's a link to my pair feel free to look round the blog.

You will find some pictures of them in various colour states.

PCF has some very good images to scroll through far better than my average camera skills.
