Looks like an unusual Orinoco-type Hypancistrus that's been posted in the past. Definitely very nice, it's nice to see there's more than one of them...

They're nice looking, but Hybrids so not my cup of tea really

No Juiceyfish i do not have any of these :( i am down for the first young depending on how they turn out He is not willing to sell the adults at any price but like Richard says they are man made Hybrids so you could always try to create them yourself

They are a stunning looking fish. Hybrid or not I am sure buyers are lining up so they will quickly become a feature in the local area.

When you say man made do you mean the breeder just put the 2 in a tank and let them cross or did something more drastic? Just curious on how the definition of man made is working in this case.
