Loricariichthys ?
I can't find a positive Id for this fish, but the body shape remind me much a Loricariichthys sp. or other genera very similar. Sorry for the pics, are a bit poor, I take at LFS, but they can't tell me nothing (at the moment) of this fish came from.
Thanks in advance.
Regards.

If those are poor quality pics, I've got to cringe at "good quality".....
guess I can toss my camera in the trashcan
supern, especially when taking those in a LFS, often tanks are much less neat than what I see now.
nice fish; looks small.
tiny one? captive bred, perhaps?
From what I know, that species is one of the larger ones

Yeah, this is P. microps I think. I saw these looking just like the pictures in an exporter in Iquitos. I remeber specifically the patterning on the front upper external rim of the suckermouth.
As sidguppy says, these are good pics, I'd certainly like to add them to the site if you are willing to email them to me?

Thanks for the remarks.
I've been reading above P. microps and remind something about the genital papilla to sexing( join to growth odontal at the sides of face ). Somenthing similar a belly scute near the papilla with star shape shows a female, is correct?
Think the fish of the pics is female.
