Artübersicht

Liobagrus reinii is a Amblycipitidae from Japan. Its barbels read the sand like fingers; coarse gravel slowly wears them down. It lives on the bottom. Adults reach 7–10.2 cm. Keep bottom stock light — they share one floor. Provide soft substrate, hiding tubes, and food that reaches the bottom before tankmates finish it. Maintain 20–26 °C at pH 6.5–7.5. A rewarding species for the aquarist who reads before buying.
