Albino Bristlenose Catfish

Albino Bristlenose Catfish is a tank cleaner that you will find in just about any aquarium, they do a fantastic job of eating left over food and keeping algae under control.

Although this is a tropical fish, it is not very tolerant of high temperatures.  The generally recommended temperature range is from 23 to 27 degrees C.

The Albino Bristlenose Catfish is quite flexible in its water requirements.  It can live in water ranging from soft to hard, with a Gh range of from 2 to 20.  Acid, neutral or alkaline pH all seem OK, although I would not subject this fish to extremes.
