Hi,, but Why It's a LDA33..?? Does the Hypancistrus mouth is smaller than Baryancistrus species??? So then the picture shows a small mouth:

Therefore It can be a Hypancistrus or not??..

Because It's the tankmate which the Fish above is sharing the same tank:

and both were saled like LDA33 but there are many doubts that can be the same species. The last pic we believe that is a real LDA33

Anybody else..??

Thanks.

It's hard when they are small.

get a picture of the dentition, and we can confidently give you an ID.

It´s a juvenile Scobinancistrus sp. L 368.

L 368 are often imported together with Baryancistrus L 142.

See Link below for a semiadult L 368

yes, the fish that I asking for ID is in my first post... the one posted by Rene MG is another fish, probably a real LDA33 and the pic together with mines could induce to a mistake
