Description
Mini Snowball Pleco (Hypancistrus sp.)
Hypancistrus sp. L471 is also known as the Dwarf Hypancistrus. L471 is more of a carnivore, than an algae eater. This is backed up by a small and lightly toothed mouth that indicates it is a poor algae eater.
Provide mainly meaty foods such as bloodworm, discus food and even brine shrimp with the occasional offering of algae tablets.
It is important to note that while peaceful, you should choose tankmates wisely as Zebras do not compete well for food with particularly fast or aggressive tankmates.
