Starlight bristlenose L183 — size comparison — facts and sources

Ancistrus dolichopterus, known to aquarists as L183, is an armoured catfish of the Brazilian Amazon, including the Negro basin. It has a low, broad body protected by bony plates and a sucker-like mouth. Adult males develop branched projections on the snout.

It stays near the bottom, taking plant material and other food from submerged surfaces. It uses sheltered spaces for breeding, including gaps between roots. The male remains with the eggs and tends them.
