This is an awesome algae eater for any more aggressive tank. They do not get as large as some Plecos, only maxxing out around 9 inches, and can hold their own with more aggressive tank mates. Chinese Algae Eaters primarily feed off of algae and the microorganisms that live in it, but it is always best to mix in some meatier food like Brine Shrimp. They become increasingly territorial as they grow, so a large tank is a must to keep any aggression from occurring. Due to this aggression, it is best to add into an already established tank, so it does not establish dominance early, and go after any new additions.
The horseface or horsehead loach is a relatively shy bottom-dweller that likes to burrow into the substrate; it will sift the sand through its gills in search of microorganisms or other food. Its long snout is reminiscent of a horse muzzle, hence its name.
The L201 Snowball Pleco (Hypancistrus sp.), also known as the Orinoco Angel Pleco, is a member of the Loricariidae family of South American suckermouth catfishes. Its black body with large white polka dots makes it a very striking fish for the planted or nano aquarium.
A generally peaceful and hardy species, the Snowball Pleco is an excellent, undemanding candidate for most aquariums. Unlike the widely-seen Common Pleco (Hypostomus plecostomus) and Trinidad Pleco (Hypostomus punctatus), which easily reach a monstrous size of 18 to 20+ inches (45 to 51+ cm), the Snowball Pleco grows to a size of only 5.5 to 6.3 inches (14 to 16 cm). This smaller size makes for a much more manageable (and less messy) pleco that can thrive permanently in a well-maintained aquarium as small as 40 gallons. Male plecos may be somewhat territorial with other males of their species, but disputes can usually be diffused by providing ample territory and hiding places for each fish
