Description: L155 Adonis Pleco / Acanthicus adonis - Live Freshwater Fish Common Name: Adonis Pleco Scientific Name: Acanthicus adonis Other Names: L155 The Adonis Pleco is a large and striking freshwater fish. They have a dark body covered in white spots and a wide head with a large mouth full of teeth. They can grow up to 3 feet in length in the wild, but generally only reach around 18-20 inches in captivity. Habitat and Distribution: The Adonis Pleco is found in South America, specifically in the Amazon River basin. They inhabit slow-moving and still waters in both clear and murky rivers, and prefer areas with a lot of cover. Size and Lifespan: The Adonis Pleco can grow up to 3 feet in length in the wild, but generally only reach around 18-20 inches in captivity. They can live for up to 15-20 years with proper care. Diet and Behavior: The Adonis Pleco is a nocturnal fish and is typically active at night. They are known to be aggressive and territorial towards other fish, so it is best to keep them in a species-only tank or with other large fish. Their diet consists mainly of meaty foods such as shrimp, crab, and other fish. Aquarium Care and Tank Requirements: The Adonis Pleco is a large fish that requires a tank with a minimum size of 100 gallons. They prefer a lot of hiding spots and areas to explore, so the tank should be heavily decorated with driftwood, caves, and rocks. The water should be well-filtered and have a pH range of 6.5-7.5. Ideal Tank Mates: The Adonis Pleco is best kept in a species-only tank or with other large, aggressive fish that are not easily intimidated by their territorial behavior. Difficulty Level: The Adonis Pleco can be difficult to care for due to their large size and territorial behavior. They require a lot of space and a well-filtered tank to maintain good water quality.
