Wanted to buy them but afraid they need planted environment to thrive. :)

probably one of those Hypoptopoma

used to have some, tough guys, planted tanks not needed but the tank should be matured, not sure what they feed on since they never seem to be eat ;)

I wondered who bought it. Guess the fish probably hard to keep Cos it is so tough to keep new fishes.

C328 has Hypoptopoma species again, beside the counter.
