    last saturday my H. sp lower xingu trapped and on the monday, 23rd of march, eggs were spotted! And they hatched today!
    The surprise was the egg clutch, from what i observed the clutch seemed normal sized but turned out the egg count was around 59! 3 casualties so left with ard 56... amazing! and i thought the female was small ... hehe

    Yah, what's next?!?

    That's a whopper of a spawn and a first one too!
    How long did you take to count them?
    With any luck they will be just as though as the L066 fry.

    Congratulations! Nice achievement and a pretty species.
    I don't remember which L-Number these usually go by but they look like they are one of the pretty ones.
    Very good size spawn for Hypancistrus spp. You must have some good sized female(s).

    thanks...

    they were mislabeled and since the presence of Hypancistrus sp Lower xingu in planet catfish which resemble L333, these were named as Hypancistrus sp Lower xingu. the id is still questionable but they do resemble L333 closely
