Hypancistrus zebra

Species Note

 * This fish commands a high price tag from both breeders and the few aquatic stores that are able to get hold of them. They were banned from export from their native South America which has led to their increased desirability in Pleco-keeping circles. They do breed well in captivity in the right conditions so captive bred fish are available occasionally, they will usually set you back around £250 or equivalent however.
