A colorful and unique smaller Loricariid, the Red Lizard Catfish or Red Lizard Whiptail likely originates from a wild fish found in the lower Amazon in Brazil but has been line bred for their vivid red coloration. With their small adult size, peaceful nature, and utility as a nuisance algae eater, this species is an ideal addition to most medium to large community aquariums. In the wild, they are usually found on and around driftwood piles and will benefit from driftwood as well as live or artificial plants to provide cover. They should be fed regularly with a sinking herbivore diet or fresh veggies and will supplement this diet by grazing on nuisance algae on glass and decor in the aquarium.

A finely patterned, medium-growing Loricariid known from the Rio Orinoco basin, Rineloricaria formosa remains an elusive and uncommon import in the hobby. In the wild, they are found on fine sand substrate in areas of open, shallow water and are capable of a good deal of color change to camouflage themselves to their surroundings. Like most similar Loricariids, this species is an omnivore which feeds on invertebrates, biofilm, algae and vegetation and should be fed a varied diet of sinking specialty formulas including gel diets and occasionally fresh veggies. A hardy and unique aquarium fish, they will do best when provided with plenty of open space, warm, soft water and some current.
