No idea what sp this is but his name is tiny. Got dropped off at Pier aquatics recently and they are currently looking for a forever home for it. Probably 2 ~3 ft long.
Definitely odd, I would have bought them, partially because they probably have limited life expectancy in the shop.Probably not odd or unusual but went to MA Farnham last week (not my local but I've found this store to be one of the better MAs about) and they had a group of Nannoptopoma sp. 'Peru

I have to ask, how much are they?I was very tempted...
Then I'd definitely buy them, if I could afford them.They looked healthy and had been in since Jan this year
I was in there last Monday and believe there was roughly 6 or 7 left... £19.50 each or 2 for £36 (if memory serves)Hi all,

I didn't. I wouldn't actually buy fish that needed to be delivered by courier, I'm not sure it is fair on the fish.@dw1305 did you decide to give the Nannoptopoma a go?
Shape of the head is why,kinda square like robocop, they are not actually Otocinclus, I think they are classed as a dwarf plecoI don’t know anything about fish - but how does a fish get named Robocop?!?

I may, at some point, go back to keeping some small "difficult" loricariids, but it would be reliant on seeing them first and judging their condition etc.

How are you getting on with these @PremierFantasy88 ?I couldn't resist any longer...View attachment 217342
Wish me luck!
Mine have settled in, are eating well and look decent size wise so all in all I can't complainHow are you getting on with these @PremierFantasy88 ?
I also couldnt resist and got some Parotocinclus Eppleyi
Good to hear they are doing wellMine have settled in, are eating well and look decent size wise so all in all I can't complain
I've not seen them in person but that's a very cool looking fish. What setup are they going in to?
Hope you have some luck with them
What was the damage?
I'll second that!I really should start a journal
Would definitely be interested in seeing more of them once they've settled 👍They look great even better in the tank. Very unusual and it was the first time I saw them myself. I've put 6 of them in a 100litre tank with sand, wood and some cattapa leaves/botanicals with lots of biofilm already established. I have 2 Parotocinclus Spilisoma in there which are doing good. The Eppleyi seem to be doing well also. Will try take some tank pictures if youre interested in seeing more of them.
£6.... that's an absolute stealDamage wasnt bad at all I picked them up for £6 each, for me considering they are hard to come by I think that was a bargain
Certainly is 👍👍👍£6.... that's an absolute steal
