mpontin Posted November 21, 2006 Author Report Share Posted November 21, 2006 whe they are settled and not stressed they are jet black - with a blue tinted eyes - I think they look good, better than the usual brown bristlenose or G(yawn)BA Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

antwan Posted November 21, 2006 Report Share Posted November 21, 2006 If you have a Photobucket account, upload them onto that, then when they've uploaded, copy and paste the link below the picture with the tags around it, and hey presto, a picture!

fishboi Posted November 21, 2006 Report Share Posted November 21, 2006 been searching on line for ya and it may be L088 http://atlas.drpez.org/Ancistrus-sp-L088-fotos http://www.catfishworld.tk/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mpontin Posted November 22, 2006 Author Report Share Posted November 22, 2006 Thanks - def L088 You can clearly see the blue eyes in that 1st picture Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rcon021 Posted November 22, 2006 Report Share Posted November 22, 2006 Have a closer look at their bellies and their fins. They have white dots on them mate..so i am unsure of it is L088 Also the bellies are alot darker in colour in comparison to L088. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mpontin Posted November 23, 2006 Author Report Share Posted November 23, 2006 they have white dots on the end of their fins too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rcon021 Posted November 23, 2006 Report Share Posted November 23, 2006 yup thats true and also at the end of their bristles. Its not L088. I cannot remember the L number but i think its somewhere in the 200z from what i can remember.sorry Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
