Catfish - Royal Whiptail (Sturisoma panamense)
The Royal Whiptail Catfish (Sturisoma panamense), also known as the Royal Farlowella or Twig Catfish, is a peaceful, elongated freshwater fish native to South America, prized for its unique appearance and algae-grazing habits. It is suitable for well-maintained community aquariums, but requires specific conditions to thrive.
Key Features:
- Peaceful temperament - it is a very peaceful bottom-dweller that coexists well with non-aggressive, small to medium-sized tank mates such as tetras, rasboras, and Corydoras catfish
- Advanced-friendly care level
- Maximum size: 20-25cm
- Ideal water temperature: 23.0°C - 28.0°C
- pH range: 6.5 - 7.5
Provide a well-filtered aquarium with driftwood and caves for hiding. Driftwood is essential for their digestive health. Include smooth rocks and hardy plants. Soft substrate preferred to protect their barbels.
