|tank_compatibility=:Peaceful towards tank mates, but may pose a threat to fry. Will be mildly territorial towards other Plecos, but as long as there's enough caves they should be fine.

|diet=:This is a carnivorous pleco, feed with sinking wafers and pellets, shrimp, [[bloodworm]], [[brine shrimp]] and mussel.
 +
|feeding_regime=:Feed once a day.
 +
|environment_specifics=:Requires a spacious, mature and well filtered tank. Does well with a strong current and requires many caves in which to hide and stake claim to.
 +
|behaviour=:Can be territorial towards conspecifics, but as long as there's plenty of caves these Plecos are more peaceful compared to other Plecos and can share their tank with other ''Hypancistrus''.

|identification=:Typical Pleco in shape with a large underslung suckermouth. Can be mistaken for several other Pleco species including [[L333]], [[L318]], [[L399]], [[L400]] and [[L401]]. ''L066'' has even/straight lines in the fins, other similar fish do not [[L318]] and [[L401]] comes from different rivers other than Rio Xingu, so if capture location is available, then the difference is very obvious. Both of these fishes have a dark base colouration with lighter lines. [[L318]] also has more wide areas of dark colour and the lighter lines are often broken. [[L401]] has narrower dark areas, but still many broken lines.
