Ancistrus sp.(3)?

Post by a7oneal »

Thanks to the sticky at the top... it appears, to me at least, that this one (and the companion) in my 50-gallon is indeed Ancistrus sp.(3).

Concur or no?

I would say so. The picture isn't the clearest I've ever seen, but I can't think of anything else that would be a match...

It is a juvenile fish, no?

The pic isn't very illustrating, but I don't see the white marks in the hard rays at pectoral and caudal. Maybe other sp.

Regards. :)
