I purchased a pair of these at an auction. The bag said they were L-59 Ancistrus Venezuelan. Can't seem to find anything out about them, does anyone know their common name? The picture is of the male, who looks more black than brown in reality, with very tiny spots on his body.

It's a spotted ancistrus from Peru. Males get 8" (over 2" wide at the operculum). They are know as Ancistrus sp. "Fine spot" in the Detroit area.
