Description:The Royal Farlowella (Sturisoma panamense), also known as the Twig or Whiptail Catfish, is a unique and slender member of the Loricariidae family. This peaceful fish is suitable for community and planted aquariums. Primarily nocturnal, it becomes more active during the day once settled. It feeds on algae and biofilm on driftwood. A diet rich in vegetable matter, including vegetable flakes, sinking algae wafers, and fresh vegetables like peas and zucchini, is ideal. The Royal Farlowella can reach up to 8 inches in length but has a low bioload compared to thicker fish of similar size. What We Like: Very peaceful and hardy addition to almost any aquarium At a maximum size of 8 inches (20.3 cm), this is a very practical and manageable fish This fish will not bother most plants, but it will help with algae control, especially as a juvenile Unique appearance as well as plenty of personality Recommended Tank Parameters: Temperature: 72° - 86° F (22° - 30° C) pH: 6.5 - 7.5 KH: 6 - 10 dKH Minimum tank size: 30 gallons Care Guidelines: Diet: Omnivore, but meatier foods should only be fed sparingly (once a week or less) Social behavior: Generally solitary, but will socialize somewhat, especially during breeding Origin: Tank-bred, but indigenous to South America Average adult size: 8 inches (20.3 cm) Average purchase size: 1 - 3 inches (2.5 - 7.6 cm)
