Can you try to take a pic of the mouth and teeths? Use a net to push him against the front of the aquarium...2 persons makes it easier.

I,ll give it a try coming saturday when i clean the tanks. :)
I,ll have to remove some wood to get him out of hiding.
Pics we,re taken from 30 cm distance and needed the flash due to shade :(
Maybe we get lucky an he decides to have a desire for current.
As i,ve seen him do a couple of times since i bought him last Saturday.
Mostly he just hides away in the shade. Defenitely not as shy as the L254 though. :)

Hi!!

I highly believe you have Hypancistrus sp L201 judging by the body shape and mouth disk!
cheers

I compared my specimen with Glenny's pictures it is indeed L201 Hypancistrus

Thanks for the replies guys, now to convince the lfs keeper that they are defenitely not L030 Oligancistrus :P
