Sucking Catfish

Sucking Catfish 5cm

Gyrinocheilus Aymonieri
Rating:
97% of 100

The sucking catfish is one of the first clean-up crew species that aquarists will be exposed to. These fish are usually the size of a toothpick in aquarium stores and the way they latch onto the glass and scrub it clean is super adorable to watch. These however are actually not catfished at all and are a member of the loach family. The sucking loach as they should rightfully be called is an incredibly hardy, easy to care for, cold water tolerant species that sounds like it would be great for any aquarium however as these fish mature, they can often be a burden if they are not in the right type of aquarium.

  5. I bought a couple of these to help clean up
    100%
    I bought a couple of these to help clean up the brown algae in my tank before it took over. They are great at their job. They move quickly when they want to but are also happy to just lounge around on the glass, wood or plants. An excellent addition to my tank.

  8. Very good fish love to eat algae
    100%
    Arrived healthy and active. They quickly found a favourite hiding spot in the aquarium and have quite a personality occasionally chasing the tetras that share the tank. Very good at cleaning algae and have managed to eat all the algae growing on the glass within a few days

  10. Very impressed
    100%
    All 3 of mine arrived wonderfully well, and stuck to the tank walls very quickly. I'm very happy. Neither of the 2 I bought from the shop were anywhere near as healthy or happy, they both died in 2 days of purchase. These guys are happy, they have all their colors and they're friendly!
