As a true dwarf species, these fish will only reach sizes of about 3”. You will typically only see the Zebra Pleco at night, as they are nocturnal. Fish of this species will only hang out at the bottom of the tank, and should be the only bottom dwelling fish of it’s kind.

Unlike other fish of this variety, this one does not like to chew on driftwood. It enjoys meaty foods such as high quality flake food, sinking carnivore pellets, and frozen or freeze-dried bloodworms, tubifex and brine shrimp, as well as sinking algae wafers. Size at the time of shipment will be between 1” – 2”.
