Always taken this for Ancistrus sp. `Rio Ucayali`, but not so sure anymore? Not to "buschy" for a male, and this is an adult. (cant be female?)

Hi,

it is 100% male... Ancistrus sp. Rio Ucayali or L182, they are very similar.

I recently sold a pair I bred a few times, the male never got any more bristles than your individual, relatively "clean shaven" by ancistrus standards.
