First let's get the bad news out of the way - unfortunately, this one's dead. It's about 1cm long and I just found it it my 350L during a water change.

The good news is that something seems to have bred. As yet, I can't spot any others.

The mystery is I don't know what. It could be L201-type (never confirmed exactly what they are), L264, or (I'm hoping) L183. Sorry the photos aren't great, I'll try and get some better ones later.

Any guesses on ID and age?

My gut feeling is that it doesn't look like an Ancistrus fry, and that it could reasonably be a Hypancistrus. I've never bred Leporacanthicus but if I recall correctly their supraoccipital bump is pretty obvious in juveniles.

Having looked through the juvenile pics on PC, I reckon it is going to be the L201-types. Hopefully we'll see some live ones to confirm soon!
