Description
Remarks: Mustard Spot Plecos (Panaqolus albomaculatus), know also as LDA031 or Orange Spot Plecos, are small, black catfish from Peru that have widely spaced spots covering their body. The wide spacing helps to distinguish them from similar fish, such as Galaxy Plecos. They appreciate sinking pellets and frozen meats, along with an arrangement of driftwood to hide in.
