Sorry, not a Chaetostoma, perhaps
Peckoltia sp(L076)
, but I'm not at all sure about that.

Hi!

I would agree with Mats on this one, L76 is a rather good guess, even if in some of those pictures the fish (especially the 3rd) looks a lot like some kinf of Hypostomus of the Cochliodon species group... but I'll stick with L76!

Cheers
