I bought this fish out of a tank labelled otocinclus, but this is clearly not an affinis, though I also got an affinis out of the same tank. Sorry, the photo is not very good. That is a standard Eheim return tube, so you can see how small the fish currently is compared to the output holes.

Hisonotus? O.Flexilis?
A better photo might help, but there are loads of better qualified posters on loricariids than me
- I'm sure a proper ID will be offered soon

I'm wondering if it might be Hisonotus notatus. That's a small specie from the same region as Otocinclus Affinis.

Hisonotus leucofrenatus if you ask me...

You may be right. I definitely think it is a hisonotus. Thanks for your input.
