Did you know there is a really tranquil Fish?

Anyone who thinks of a fish that gives serenity to the Aquarium will think of silence and living somewhere far away.

But let us enter the world of Abino Pleco, a fish that likes to swim at the bottom of the tank every day, undertake the duty of cleaning the lake, and eat all the algae and moss clinging to the lake wall.

Abino plecos are also relatively small, only about 6 inches long. As one of the catfish variations, the color is usually yellowish white and has red eyes. Although they look quite cool, their food is mainly algae, vegetables, and meat. They are fish that do not need too much space. However, they still need a lake with plenty of hiding places, such as rocks, driftwood, and plants.

  

When compared to other catfish cleaning glass species, Abino Pleco has the following outstanding characteristics: 

1. They are quiet fish who do not "like" to bother their "friends" in the tank.

2. The sole distinction between Abino Pleco and other fish is that they are resilient and can survive a wide range of water conditions.

3. They are low-maintenance and require little effort.
