Dekeyseria sp. (L215), known as the Butterfly Pleco, is a beautifully patterned catfish ideal for moderate to large aquariums. It possesses remarkable camouflage abilities and prefers environments with plenty of hiding spaces, such as driftwood and rock crevices. They are mostly nocturnal, venturing out during the night or under dim lighting conditions to feed.
