I didn't say they are F. acus, I said they are in the Farlowella acus group. seriouslyfish.com is ok source but I prefer to read systematics and taxonomy if possible COMPARISONS. This specics closely resembles F. vittata and is distinguished from it by having in the adult male a shorter snout-mouth length relative to interorbital width, and breeding odontodes on the preorbital ridge. The ratio of snout-mouth to interorbital width for adult male F. acus is 1.3-1.8, and for adult male F. vittata is 1.9-3.1. Pigmented stripes in the caudal fin are more obscured by clear ocelli in F. acus. So imagine F. acus with rostrum ratio 1.8 and F. vittata with rostrum 1.9. Almost identical to naked eye

It would be better to say that they are in the Farlowella acus group rather than they are both F. Vittata. They are fairly close to each other. Key to the species Diagnostic characteristic of cpecies group

It is definitely Farlowella sp. - Twig Catfish

Rineloricaria sp. - Red Lizard Catfish, L010a

Nothing's new Rineloricaria sp. or Sturisoma sp. marked as Farlowella sp.

I can't remember the last time I saw Farlowella in NZ.

Pomacea sp. - Apple snail

No it is not the same fish. The first one is a small 10 cm arowana and the second one is about 20 cm in length.
