Otocinclus ID.

Post by GekkoGeck0 »

I bought this little guy at a petstore, simply labeled "Otocinclus catfish".

I've used the Cat-eLog and haven't been able to positively identify him.

Sorry for the blurry picture, my camera has been tempermental and hasn't let me get a better picture.

My non-expert guess is that that's Otocinclus vittatus or O. vestitus, and my money is on O. vittatus.
