L262 Fine Spot Arabesque Pleco (Hypancistrus sp. ‘L262’)
Price range: $59.99 through $69.99
The L262 Fine Spot or Fine Spot Arabesque Pleco is a striking Hypancistrus very similar to its close relative, the L260 Queen Arabesque. These fish originate in the clear waters of the Rio Tapajos in Brazil, where they inhabit rocky, fast-moving shallows. In the aquarium, they are hardy and will feed on a variety of sinking foods but should be given plenty of protein rich foods like Repashy’s insectivore gel diets.
