| To start with Pachanoi has short spines. so it aint pach.
good links for more info http://www.columnar-cacti.org/trichocereus/page4.html http://www.trichocereus.com/peruvian_torch4.htm
Both of these links will give you a much greater understanding of the whole family. It is a topic of great length and one that you will gain knowledge in time by seeing and being around lots of diff tricho's, Also help to see them when they are a little older. other wise ID can be difficult with smaller plants.
Hope this shed's some light for you and helps you out. I wish I knew where on the forum was a previous thred with lots of info on this subject but im sure if you have a look through some older ones you will find more.
