it is a meat lover. hikari sinking pellets and OSI shrimps pellets should be fine..

super shy species who will find the smallest hole to hide and stuff the whole head in. active at nite only

My old piece of L273 was very active and fought with other plecos for food... Depends on the conditioning ba.

I just bought this pleco...bought it from C328 aunty there...
When I 1st look at it I confirm want it....remind me of the 3ft big hairy guy at CF

thats a hystrix, bro.

Looks similar to the adonis tat once CF used to have.
they are close relatives, where by hystrix have flatter head structure and longer/wider pectoral fins.

it's a nice catch.
Happy keeping.

Given enough time n space, it will be like one 3ft monster in no time.
Maybe in year 2027.
