Spinibarbus hollandi

The Taiwan Mahseer or Holland’s Carp is a medium-growing species endemic to the freshwater rivers of Taiwan and Southern China, where they are typically found in rocky, fast moving stretches of open water. This species inhabits temperate areas and will tolerate both tropical and subtropical temperatures in the aquarium. Although hardy and adaptable, they will do best in clean, well-oxygenated water with moderate current. A peaceful species which will do well with most similarly sized fish.
