L27d Wood Grain Royal Pleco Panaque Ambrusteri Jamanxim

Overview: The L27d Wood Grain Royal Pleco, a variant of the Panaque ambrusteri from the Jamanxim River, is a stunning addition to any freshwater aquarium. Known for its unique, wood-like patterns across its body, this pleco brings a touch of elegance and natural beauty. Its robust size and distinctive appearance make it a centerpiece in any tank setting.

Origin: Native to the Jamanxim River in Brazil, the Wood Grain Royal Pleco thrives in fast-flowing waters. Its natural habitat is rich in sunken wood and rocks, providing plenty of hiding spots and grazing surfaces.

Feeding: This species is primarily a wood grazer, relying on submerged wood for both nutrition and digestive aid. Supplement their diet with high-quality, vegetable-based foods, such as algae wafers and blanched vegetables. Occasional protein sources like bloodworms can be offered sparingly.

Tank Mates: The L27d Wood Grain Royal Pleco is generally peaceful and can coexist with a wide range of tank mates. Ideal companions include larger tetras, peaceful cichlids, and other bottom dwellers. Avoid overly aggressive fish that may stress the pleco.

Aggression: This pleco exhibits low aggression and is mostly nocturnal. It may show territorial behavior towards other bottom dwellers, especially in smaller tanks. Providing ample hiding spots and driftwood can minimize territorial disputes.

Experience Level: Due to its specific dietary and environmental needs, the Wood Grain Royal Pleco is best suited for intermediate to advanced aquarists. A commitment to maintaining tank cleanliness and water quality is essential for their well-being.

Water Parameters:

  • Temperature: 76-86°F (24-30°C)
  • pH: 6.5-7.5
  • Hardness: 6-10 dGH
  • Ensure the tank is well-oxygenated with a strong current to mimic their natural habitat.

Proper care and attention to the L27d Wood Grain Royal Pleco’s needs will ensure a healthy, long-lived specimen that adds beauty and interest to any freshwater aquarium.
