Aquarium Information

  • Diet: herbivore

  • Compatibility: Excellent with other peaceful, small to medium-sized fish that prefer similar water conditions. Avoid aggressive or fin-nipping species. Best kept in groups of their own kind.
  • Special requirements: Requires a well-oxygenated tank with strong water flow, mimicking their natural stream habitats. Abundant smooth rocks and driftwood for grazing surfaces are essential. A mature aquarium with established biofilm and algae growth is crucial for their diet. Sensitive to poor water quality and sudden changes in parameters.
