Another pleco ID please :)

[citizencurt]

Picked up two of these as L146, but unsure as they look quite different to the other l146's ive seen in the past, and also on any catalogue of them I have seen. Wonder what you think?
The pics are pretty dark, but they are actually white in colour - not albino as they do not have red eyes. Their bellies look almost completely clear.

Sorry the pics arent great!







Will get some better pics tomorrow, but what do you think for now??

[citizencurt]

Photos really dont show that these are super white in colour

The one on the left in pic 2 looks like

Chaetostoma formosae

.

[citizencurt]

Definitely a Chaetostoma, colourwise at the moment they are move like Chaetostoma tachiraense. They are very small, I'm thinking that over time the colours will perhaps change.

[nvcichlids]

curious, do they look like my avatar?

[bigbird]

also agree, looks like Chaetostoma. They seem a little small to fully ID and need clearer shots as well. cheers jk

[citizencurt]

They are a lot whiter than the avatar. Havent had a chance for clearer pics properly yet. Here are two more I took after I uploaded the last ones....

[KungFish]

I still think they look like C. formosae, but the small size could make it hard to 100% confirm the ID.

After some further research, I believe them to be Chaetostoma formosae, but agreed at this size it is difficult. Looking forward to them gaining some size as they are both beautiful.
