The Orange Peckoltia Pleco Catfish, scientifically known as Hypancistrus sp. (L387), is a stunning freshwater fish native to the Rio Araguaya in the Amazon system, Brazil. Its light yellow-tan body with bold black markings creates a striking display in nano or planted aquariums. Moreover, this peaceful bottom-dweller is a hardy addition, making it an ideal choice for aquarists seeking a compact, colourful fish. Sourcing from captive-bred stocks is recommended due to its popularity in the aquarium trade.
