L350 Imperial Pleco (Peckoltia pankimpuju)

Price range: $82.99 through $359.99

Found in the deep channels of fast-flowing reaches of the middle Amazon in Peru, the the L350 Imperial or Coal Pleco is a large and uncommon species of Peckoltia distinguished by its jet black coloration and long caudal streamers. Some deepwater specimens lack pigment entirely. Like their relatives, they are adapted for a diet consisting primarily of driftwood in the wild and should be offered plenty of driftwood in the aquarium. They will readily accept fresh veggies and specialty prepared diets like Repashy’s Morning Wood in the aquarium.
