I bought 1 a few days ago and it looks exactly the same and has a lyretail.

All i can find on the internet is pictures, no info. But it sure is a nice looking fish i'd say treat it like any other plec, good water quality and feed it algae wafers and give it places to hide! Good Luck

from what i have just looked through, Ancistrinae species of 'plecs' are "omnivorous and easy to feed. Although and effective algae eater, it should be given a varied diet of prepared foods"

it means they will eat cucumber and other veg etc
