9 points for Seabean haha, I gave you the point for the species of Farlowella, here's why
Although often sold as the closely related F. acus (a species that is highly endangered and imported very rarely, if at all), Farlowella vittata is the most common representative of the genus in hobbyists' tanks. The easiest way to distinguish the two is by comparing the shape of the rostrum, which is longer and more slender in vittata, although there are also differences in the arrangement of the ventral scutes. They are adapted for life among peripheral vegetation and tree roots along the edges of streams and rivers and exhibit amazing levels of camouflage.
