Chaetostoma, The Rubbernose Plecos ~ Their biology and care within the aquarium

How to care for Chaetostoma also known as the Rubbernose and bulldog pleco within the freshwater aquarium. These can be tropical but also cold water catfishes from South America well known for eating mostly algaes but also bacteria and other aspects of periplankton. They can be housed with a variety of other fishes who enjoy high flow but also lower temperatures such as many danio, rasbora, tetras, barbs, cichlids and of course other catfishes and maybe loaches. A very diverse but also specialised genus of freshwater aquarium fishes. References: Ballen, G. A., Urbano-Bonilla, A., & Maldonado-Ocampo, J. A. (2016).
