Overview:

These plecos are able to change their color at will. They can be dull grey or they can be bright yellow or anything in-between. Definitely a unique species and they don't get massive!

Setup Considerations:

These guys appreciate a lot of cover. So rocks, driftwood, and caves are very much appreciated.

They are mostly vegetarian, but do appreciate a good mix of protein in their diet. They're eating algae wafers, Massivore, zucchini, and frozen blood worms for us.

Water Parameters: We keep all our fish at a temperature of 79 F.

Our pH measures around 8.3 with a KH and GH a bit over 300ppm. That being said, we want to caution folks with different water parameters from thinking that they need to change their water for our fish. We have many customers in the Pacific Northwest, Upstate New York, and other areas that have very soft water. Our fish do just fine in their water without any parameter matching. What is most important is that the water our fish are put in upon arrival have steady parameters, not that your water parameters match ours.
