Dwarf Anchor Catfish

The Dwarf Anchor Catfish is a diminutive bottom-dweller prized for its peaceful temperament and algae-grazing habits. Reaching just 1-1.5 inches, this species thrives in planted aquariums with soft substrate and plenty of hiding spots among driftwood and vegetation. Ideal for smaller tanks and community setups, it feeds on algae wafers and sinking pellets while contributing to tank maintenance. Requires stable water conditions with moderate flow and temperatures between 72-78°F. A hardy, low-maintenance addition for aquarists seeking efficient algae control without aggressive behavior.
