These are a little bigger, +- 4,5cm and came in as A. hoplogenis. I think they could be the same species as the others.



I collected 1,000s of those in Venezuela and they are, unfortunately, not your fish.On a dutch forum someone suggested Ancistrus brevifilis, I don't think that's a match.
They look similar but mine (actually they are at my work) have not a patterned belly, also the distribution doesn't fit. These are from Peru, A. sp. "honeycomb" is from Brazil.DutchFry wrote:isn't this the species they call Ancistrus sp. 'Wabenmuster' in germany? in the US they call it A. sp. 'Honeycomb' I think...
I don't know if this is a characteristic or not. I've just ordered the species description and will see if that offers any clues.Bijn wrote:What about the belly pattern?
