L333 King Tiger Pleco
Rare & Limited Availability! Our L-Number designer plecos are captive bred and not wild caught animals.
The L333 King Tiger Pleco (Hypancistrus sp. L333) is a striking pleco species highly valued for its bold black-and-white striped pattern, which varies from vertical bands to more irregular markings. Native to Brazil’s Rio Xingu, this dwarf pleco remains compact, making it suitable for medium-sized aquariums. Peaceful yet somewhat territorial with its own kind, it thrives in well-oxygenated tanks with caves, driftwood, and sandy substrates, making it both a functional algae grazer and an ornamental showpiece.
It's important to note that our L-Numbrs are clear from diseases and well adapted to clean and dechlorinated local tap water. However given that our pleco stocks are kept in pristine water conditions with very low bacterial content, we urge owners to avoid adding them directly into an old aquarium to prevent adverse reactions which may lead to unfavorable health risks. Instead, please prepare a separate quarantine tank, our affordable rimless aquariums are an excellent choice for this purpose.
