...and can read Japanese, this site's for you.

There is even a 4 MB Quicktime movie of a spawning sequence in Parotocinclus. Note the size of the gravid female.

Wow!

They sure get some nice stuff in Japan.

It was very interesting browsing that site; I had never seen images of live O. hasemani.

I had a look at some of the others:

Possibly O. hoppei?

http://www010.upp.so-net.ne.jp/chamcham ... o/oto.html
O. vittatus?

http://www010.upp.so-net.ne.jp/chamcham ... pilus.html
I doubt that is macrospilus. Possibly xakriaba?

http://www010.upp.so-net.ne.jp/chamcham ... oto_v.html
Another vittatus?

Not vittatus. I'm thinking huaorani?
