Cigar Shark Leptobarbus Rubripinna 8cm "Introducing the striking Cigar Shark (Leptobarbus rubripinna), a captivating addition to any freshwater aquarium. Originating from Southeast Asia, these energetic and social fish thrive in spacious tanks with strong filtration. Feeding on a varied diet of high-quality pellets, live, and frozen foods, these omnivores appreciate a mix of plant matter and protein, ensuring their health and vitality. Their peaceful nature makes them compatible with other large, non-aggressive species like barbs, loaches, and larger tetras in a sizable tank. Despite their 'shark' moniker, they exhibit minimal aggression, making them suitable for community setups. Intermediate aquarists will enjoy caring for these fish, as they require consistent water parameters with a pH range of 6.5 to 7.5, temperatures between 72-78°F (22-26°C), and ample swimming space to thrive. With their graceful demeanor and distinctive appearance, the Cigar Shark adds a touch of allure to any well-maintained aquarium."
