Hi MCampos, can be Hypostomus margaritifer, Hypostomus albopunctatus or Hypostomus regani (high dorsal fin)...

Hypostomus chrysostiktos
or
Hypostomus sp(l246)
come to mind, but don't know anything about either of them enough to say for sure. I don't usually pay Hypostomus much attention.

Heribertogj,

Não sei pois o peixe foi comprado em loja.

I believe being a Hypostomus margaritifer or Hypostomus chrysostiktos. The Hypostomus chrysostiktos is more similar because of less uniform spots on head, right?

Thanks!
