Hemiancistrus-Demantoides Hi-Fin L200
£70.00
Description
It took a while for the worldwide Pleco community to realise that there were two different species exported from Colombia as L200. The original one, Hemiancistrus subviridis, is more common in the trade.
It does not grow as large as its Brazilian Baryancistrus cousins but should still be offered a roomy tank. Clean, well-filtered, oxygen-rich, warm water is required.
Hemiancistrus-Demantoides, often called L200 “hi-fin”, is rarer. It’s a wonderful Pleco with its yellow/brown colours, and once settled, it’s also a hardy aquarium inhabitant if given proper conditions.
