Hi,

These are striped Hypancistrus. If you do not believe, look at the teeth. (Mouths of plecos)
The distinction of striped Hypancistrus is very difficult.
In general we cann't distinguish striped Hypancistrus by pattern.
We look for body proportions. But it isn´t possible with very young fishes.
Normally, it knows only the catcher better than the breeder.

Why do you think thats aren´t Hypancistrus sp. L333?

Greetings

I by no means am an expert of L333's as I've only owned 1 or 2. After looking over many pictures right now, I don't really believe these are L333's either but this is my inexperienced opinion.
