$12.99

Keeping Four-Line Pimelodella Catfish (Pimelodella quadrolineata) requires specific care and attention to ensure their well-being. Here are the essential requirements for keeping Four-Line Pimelodella Catfish:

  1. Aquarium size: Provide a spacious aquarium with a minimum capacity of 30 gallons (113 liters) for a small group of Four-Line Pimelodella Catfish. Larger tanks are recommended if keeping a larger group or housing them with other tank mates.

  2. Water parameters: Maintain stable water conditions. The ideal temperature range is around 75-80°F (24-27°C), pH between 6.5-7.5, and hardness between 5-12 dGH. Regular monitoring and appropriate water adjustments are necessary.

  3. Tank setup: Create a well-decorated tank with plenty of hiding places using rocks, driftwood, and caves. Four-Line Pimelodella Catfish are nocturnal and enjoy hiding during the day. Provide hiding spots such as PVC pipes or caves made from rocks or ceramic materials.

  4. Filtration and water flow: Use an efficient filtration system to maintain good water quality. Moderate water flow is suitable for Four-Line Pimelodella Catfish, as they prefer calmer waters compared to some other species.

  5. Lighting: Provide subdued lighting conditions. Use a lighting system that mimics natural day and night cycles, with dimmer lighting during the day and darkness during the night.

  6. Diet: Four-Line Pimelodella Catfish are omnivorous. Offer a varied diet consisting of high-quality sinking pellets, flakes, and frozen or live foods. Include protein-rich foods like bloodworms, brine shrimp, and sinking carnivore pellets, as well as some plant matter like blanched vegetables or spirulina-based flakes.

  7. Tank mates: Choose peaceful tank mates that are not aggressive and won't harm or stress the Four-Line Pimelodella Catfish. Avoid keeping them with fin-nipping or aggressive fish. Suitable tank mates include peaceful community fish, tetras, or other catfish species.
