Primarily algae grazers but also accept algae wafers, sinking pellets, and blanched vegetables like zucchini or spinach.

Ideal for peaceful community aquariums with small fish, shrimp, and other non-aggressive species. Avoid housing with aggressive fish that may nip or eat them.

Completely non-aggressive and community-friendly.
Experience Level:
Perfect for beginners — low-maintenance and very hardy.
