Has anyone kept these before? I came across them today at maidenhead aquatics as I can't find parotocinclus spilosoma anywhere to go with the 1 I have as my bottom dweller. Considering these but there's not too much available to read.

How high does the flow rate need to be? The flow rate in my tank isn't that high but it's optimum for tucanos that I have.
 
Tucano tetra and Pseudogastromyzon are not ideal tank mates coming from completely opposite habitats, Tucanos from warm, sedate waters where the loaches come from cool, high flow environments. That being said, the flow IMO is less important than the need for high levels of dissolved oxygen
 
Hi, sorry to be somewhat unrelated to your question. I've been looking for Pseudogastromyzon Laticeps for a while. What Maidenhead Aquatics were they at? Thanks
