Closeups are needed to confirm, my guess based on these pictures are two females.

And a lot more...

Got this beauty from a local shop, they got it from another customer and tryed to sell it as a Golden Nugget :)

He's 20cm+ TL, I've got no info on him all. Any Leporacanthicus expert that would like to share there thoughts? If there is any need for better pictures I'll get my DSLR back sunday. Just ...

Great work Geoff One of my favorite ones alongside with the L255. Looking forward to that report

fantastic:) Do you happen to know anything about the setup jools? Newer heard about a successful breeding of any of the Pseudolithoxus species berfore

Hi guys,

Noticed that Elko Kinlechner added tree photos of fry today. Anybody know if these are breed or wild?

I couldn't find Elko as a user and ask directly.

Hi Lars,

Take a look in this tread. It's in norwegian, but that shouldt be a problem for you. It might even be here somewhere?!

There is a breif description of the setup in post #8, and im sure Birger is willing disuss any questions you have about the fish

apistomaster, actually it is an interesting scenario with changing male in the cave with eggs:) Is such scenario possible?
Anyway thanks for helping to rise such question.

I can't say for hypancistrus species, but I have experienced on more than one occasion that one of my ansistrus males have ...

L255 is quite a bit flatter/wider body than your photos, I'd say (I have seen L255 and A. ranunculus in real life, and they are at least 4x wider than they are "tall").

Mats

The photos doesn't give it enough justice, but I would say the A. ranunculus is wider as I have keept a few earliere ...

Thanks guys, feel like I'm getting somewhere.

Take a look at the following and see what you think is closest in terms of body shape.
Ancistrus sp(l071)
Or this small spotted A. ranunculus -type from the Xingu
Ancistrus sp(l255)

There is a slightly flattened dark Ancistrus sp with spots from ...

Hi Shane, I've been looking at some pictures of the "common" Leticia Anicistrus. But I can't get myself to agree with you, may be that I just found some bad photos b-) My specimen is more like the L034 in bodyshape. Its black, and the spots are greenish. I've been looking around but I can't find ...

This last photo is the female, the bastard killed... regretably the best photo I had..

Anybody seen these before? Top tree pictures are of the male. I got a pair over a year a go, they where extras in a shipment from Colombia, and thats all the info I got...

Thanks for the quick replies guys. My thoughts where as yours Mats, but I don't trust my own decisions on this one:)

Hi guys,

I just acquired five grown L-200. I think there is four Hemiancistrus subviridis and one Baryancistrus demantoides correct me if I'm wrong. My plan is to try to do a mini setup of one of Haavard's tanks. But it is taking me a bit longer that planed to get it together. Meanwhile i was ...

Thanks to the both of you, I'll get started and see if I can make this look good. All info I can get on these littel suckers is helpful, cause there's not much to find on the net for now.

Cheers

My starting consept was something like Haavard's subviridis tank, and I'm probably going to stick with with it. Based on there bodyshape I suspected them thrive in even faster moving water than some of the other speicies that come from the some area. But I might just be that they are caugth in the ...

Thanks Mats,

Anything would help, I have a few pointers to go by but the project wouldnt be done overnigth anyway:)

Looking forward to you findings.

Hi guys,

I'm adding two more adult Pseudolithoxus dumus L244 to collection, and I'm now in the process of setting up a new tank for the group.
Is there anybody who could help me with some info on there habitat? I've been searching the net for some time now, but the only thing I've got so far is ...

A happy update. The male finaly managed to keep his egges in the cave long enough for them to hatch, he's currently on his second brood in the cave now. (he only needed five tries.. that I know of before the first one was a success)

The fourth time he kicked them out I managed to save the egges ...

Thanks again Janne appreciate it:)

Thanks for all the help guys. And yes Janne 10-11cm is TL:)

Any pointers on what your looking for on these to give a ID?

I'll separate them for now, and get some pictures again when they've grown a bit more.
Here are some photos for a few months back.

Here are some old photos of 1 and 4



No. 1

No.4

If you need any close-ups let me know, and I'll do my best.

I'll get some side view photos of no. 1,3 and 4 later today. Here is no.2

This one is has been in my care for around two years. Total length 10-11cm.
They have only been put together during the photosession, due to the obvious diffrence in coloring. Thats the main reason I wanted a positive ID on ...

I've repositioned the caves, increased the waterflow and removed all tankmates. Thers only the male and two females left, if this doesnt do it I'll try to hatch the eggs myself.

Thanks for all the good feedback

I can never tell these striped hypancistrus species apart, anyone with a trained eye?

No. 1, 3 and 4 where bougth together, no. 2 has been alone in my tanks for years. All are bougth as L-333.

Theres both stone, cermic and bamboo caves in the tank, and all caves are placed realtive flat. So I dont think the is a problem with the eggs rolling out. Looks like he prefers a stone cave. He's kicked them out four times now, maybe he just needs a few more tries. From what I can see the eggs look ...

Hi guys,

I have a L-183 male that keeps kicking out eggs from the cave afte about a week. The eggs look good but can't get them to hatch, I haven't tried to remove them from the cave early on due to the fact that I wanted to keep them with the male as long as possible.
My water values are as ...
