Leporinus friderici

Leporinus friderici are known for their striking vertical bands, extensive schooling behavior, and active nature. It's essential to house them with similar-sized tank mates and provide plenty of swimming space along with hides and decor. They're also notable for a herbivorous diet but will accept a variety of quality foods, including vegetables and live/frozen offerings. Regular water changes and an efficient filtration system are necessary due to their potential size and activity levels.
