Descripción de la especie

From the waters of China comes Liobagrus styani, a member of the family Amblycipitidae. A whiskered bottom resident whose day begins when the lights go off. It lives on the bottom. Adults reach 7.9–11.7 cm. Pairs for the small species; solitaries for the big. Feed sinking foods after lights-out, keep the sand soft, and never let nitrate climb unnoticed. Maintain 20–26 °C at pH 6.5–7.5. A solid choice for a well-planned community tank.
