LEPTHOPLOSTERNUM ALTAMAZONICA

Post by PsYcHoTiC_MaDmAn »

sorry bout the caps, i copied and pasted it from the trimar stock list,

any infomation on this sp. all that was on te cat-e-log was pectorale. and that sort of looks like its ok to go in a 12"cube tank, though i wonder if their compatible with dario dario (scarlet badis) which seems to be the direction i'm going with this tank

CLOFFSCA says "Max length 5 cm SL", and it's distribution as "Upper Amazon River Basin" and Country: Peru.

It's actually listed as "L. altamazonicum"

thanks. not sure about them. especially as the tank is so small. might just stick with otos as my catfish reprasentatives.

i think the stocking will end up
5 dario dario (i dont know how teritorial they are, i have bigger tanks if i need them)
6 rasbora maculta
4 otos
4 cardina japonia.
