I am new to this forum and my twig catfish just laid eggs. Can anyone confirm if it is a Farlowella vittata?

I have read the article in reproduction section of website. Anyone have different or additional tips on feeding/raising young?

His rostrum looks odd--as if someone bit a chunk out of it. Anyways, nice job with the eggs and good luck with raising them.

Yes His rostrum looked that way when I got him. Has not affected his parenting. Know any fish plastic surgeons?
