Hypancistrus

Post by Max Chumachenko »

Fish arrived March 12, 2012.
These fish are from Brazil.
I got 40 fish.
This is clearly two different types of Hypancistrus
Tell me who they are?

I bought this fish with names
Type 1 - a L-260
Type 2 - a L-066

I have doubts - do type 1 not an L260 ... I also believe that it is not L-333
I have a collection of L260 and L333 - is a different fish.
The size of the fish in the photo (TL) - 13 cm

Type 2 - yes it is similar to the L-066 ... I have the same doubts

There is no L 260 in the pictures, thats clear. They all look more like L 66 than L 333.

These fish look very much like my 333s from Alenquer. Also called 333 black and white.
