Can someone help me id this fish. Closest I have gotten is Rineloricaria eigenmanni? The bars under the tail are faint and there's no spots on the belly. Hope someone with a little more experience with this fish can help?
Also, the more black and grey fish (male?) is completely blind.

Re: Rineloricaria sp?
Hi Clay! Long time no see! Good to hear from you.
The larger fish like to me. The parallel black lines on the underbelly is a trait I've been told to look for to make that ID.
The gray fish might be eigenmanni, but I'm not sure. They do show a range of base color, ranging from a gray- blue- green to tan to red. See these: https://www.planetcatfish.com/common/im ... ge_id=2020 and viewtopic.php?p=324221#p324221
Good luck with them.
Cheers, Eric

Hi Eric, same here. I just got the fish so I'm hoping those black lines show up a little stronger as the fish get more comfortable. Thanks for the response!
