Featuring a dark body adorned with beautiful cream, gold, or yellow horizontal stripes, the L190 is a true showpiece fish that commands attention in large aquariums.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNative to South American river systems, the Royal Panaque is famous for its ability to rasp and digest wood, making driftwood an essential part of its diet and environment. These powerful plecos spend much of their time grazing on driftwood, biofilm, and surfaces throughout the aquarium while also accepting vegetables, algae wafers, and quality sinking foods.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDespite their large size, Royal Panaque Plecos are generally peaceful and can be kept with a variety of larger community fish. They thrive in spacious aquariums with strong filtration, excellent oxygenation, and plenty of hiding places.
