Long Nose Twig Catfish Farlowella Vittata 10cm
"Meet the elegant Long Nose Twig Catfish (Farlowella vittata), a captivating addition to any peaceful aquarium. Originating from South America, these slender catfish are known for their elongated, twig-like bodies and peaceful demeanor. Their diet primarily consists of algae, so they make fantastic natural cleaners for your tank.
To thrive, provide a well-maintained tank with plenty of hiding spots among driftwood and plants. They prefer a peaceful environment and do well with tank mates of similar temperament, such as small tetras, peaceful dwarf cichlids, or other non-aggressive bottom dwellers.
With a low level of aggression and a moderate care level, these catfish are suitable for intermediate aquarists. Keeping water parameters stable, such as a pH of 6.5-7.5 and temperatures between 72-78°F (22-26°C), is key to their well-being.
Add a touch of grace to your tank with the Long Nose Twig Catfish—a delightful, low-maintenance addition perfect for aquarists seeking a peaceful and unique species."
