Here's some pics from earlier when I tore down my tank to clean. Figured I'd take some shots while I was inspecting them. Any thoughts on sexing? #3 is for sure a male!

They certainly do appear to be the same species. A bit small to hazard a foolproof sex, though.

Hi!!

They are Hypancistrus debilittera...
I would guess that fish 1-2-4 are males...not sure for fish 3...possibly a female or still too young!!

Cheers
