Do you have any suggestion what name I should use to be close to "true" :D I've visit planetcatfish.com in past when looking for information and even there was not 100% sure what species is it. Thank you for constructive comment. _ Andrzej Hi Mats,

Yes, I agree there is not clear information about it and so many sources provide different information. Do you have any suggestion what name I should use to be close to “true” :D

I’ve visit planetcatfish.com in past when looking for information and even there was not 100% sure what species is it.

Thank you for constructive comment.

This is not Ancistrus dolichopterus. It is the "common" Ancistrus, which is not quite sure what species it is, as it's been captive bred for so long that all traces of where the original fish came from are now lost [not helped by the fact that many books has the incorrect species names].
