Loricaria Royal (Loricaria Simillima)

The Royal Whiptail Catfish  is a peaceful, omnivorous South American catfish that can reach up to 25 cm (10 inches) in length. It is known for its whiptail-like appearance and is a mouthbrooder. It has a broad distribution and can vary in color, but generally thrives in spacious, well-maintained aquariums with soft, sandy substrate, driftwood, and rocks to provide hiding spots.
