The first two images may
or not be C. spilurus as there was no location information
on them, but they are very close to the original description. Aquarium
Care: As this is one of the longer snouted species it will
be well suited to most community tanks. A well planted tank with
a soft substrate such as sand so they can bury their snouts while
searching out food. Diet: Readily accepts a mixed
and varied diet which includes granular foods, tablet food, frozen
bloodworm and good quality flake to name but a few. Remarks:
This species is quite rare in imports.
