Garra and Related Species


NOTE: All catfish and loaches are quarantined and given a course of treatment consisting of antibiotic and dewormer before being sold. This ensures that our fish are free from diseases common in wild caught fish.

 

Forget Plecostomus, Hypostomus, Ancistris, even Flying Foxes.
Garra are perhaps one of the best algae eating fishes out there.
