Information: |
The Lasiancistrus
species are quite similar to the Ancistrus genus but have
a flatter profile and do not possess the tentacles on the mouths
of this genera. Sexual Differences: Males have
longer pectoral fins and have a heavier growth of odontodes behind
the gill covers and on the edges of the snout. Aquarium
Care: Relatively easy to keep but large males may tend
to be territorial. Diet: Bogwood should be provided
for rasping on and vegetables will be their main dietary requirements.
Will also take veg. tablets/wafers, fine live and frozen foods. |
