Butter Catfish Ompok Bimaculatus 8cm
"Introducing the captivating Butter Catfish (Ompok bimaculatus) - a delightful addition to any freshwater aquarium! Originating from the rivers and streams of Southeast Asia, these charming catfish sport a distinct buttery-yellow hue that adds a touch of vibrancy to your tank. With a peaceful demeanor, they thrive in groups and are perfect for community setups.
Feeding on a diet of live and frozen foods like bloodworms and small insects, they showcase their natural foraging behavior, keeping your tank lively. Their peaceful nature makes them excellent tank mates for similarly sized non-aggressive fish like tetras, rasboras, and peaceful cichlids.
Butter Catfish are low on the aggression scale, making them ideal for community tanks. Their care requirements cater to intermediate aquarists, as they necessitate stable water conditions with temperatures between 75-82°F (24-28°C) and a pH range of 6.5-7.5. A tank of at least 30 gallons or more with plenty of hiding spots replicating their natural habitat is recommended.
These mesmerizing creatures, with their gentle disposition and striking appearance, make the Butter Catfish a fantastic choice for hobbyists seeking a unique and peaceful addition to their freshwater aquarium."
