L173b False Zebra Pleco Hypancistrus Sp 5cmOverview:
The L173b False Zebra Pleco, part of the Hypancistrus genus, is a captivating and sought-after species in the aquarium trade. Known for its stunning black and white striped pattern, which closely resembles that of a zebra, this pleco adds both beauty and intrigue to any freshwater setup. It is a smaller species of pleco, reaching a maximum length of about 3.5 to 4 inches, making it an ideal choice for aquarists with limited space.
Origin:
Native to the Amazon Basin in South America, the L173b False Zebra Pleco thrives in fast-flowing rivers and streams. Its natural habitat is characterized by rocky substrates and plenty of hiding spots among crevices, which should be mimicked in the home aquarium for its wellbeing.
Feeding:
The L173b is predominantly carnivorous, with a diet that should consist of high-quality sinking pellets, frozen or live foods such as brine shrimp, bloodworms, and daphnia. While it may occasionally graze on algae and biofilm, it is important to supplement its diet with meaty foods for optimal health.
Tank Mates:
Ideal tank mates for the L173b False Zebra Pleco are peaceful and similarly sized fish. Avoid housing them with large, aggressive species. Good companions include tetras, rasboras, and dwarf cichlids. Due to their territorial nature towards conspecifics, it's advisable to keep only one per tank or ensure ample space and hiding places if housing multiple.
Aggression:
This species exhibits a relatively peaceful demeanor towards other species but can become territorial with other bottom-dwellers, especially of its own kind. Providing a spacious tank with plenty of hiding spots can minimize aggressive behavior.
Experience Level:
The L173b False Zebra Pleco is best suited for intermediate to advanced aquarists. Its specific dietary and environmental needs, along with the requirement for pristine water conditions, make it a challenging yet rewarding species for more experienced hobbyists.

Gentle cleanser for dry and sensitive skin.
Style: Tolerance Daily Foaming Facial Cleanser, Style: Tolerance Daily Foaming Facial Cleanser
I have dry and sensitive skin, and this cleanser has worked very well for me. It is very gentle on the skin and has not caused any irritation.
The texture is light and foamy, it spreads easily across the face and rinses off without leaving any residue. After using it, my skin feels clean, soft, and comfortable, without any tightness.
The size is quite large, which I find great because it lasts a long time with daily use.
Overall, a simple but very pleasant cleanser for sensitive skin.

Exquisite, Perfection, Stunning!
Size: Gallery
Perfect in every way! I bought this statue to go in a special place in my backyard. But, once I opened it up and saw how beautiful it is, I changed my mind! I have it sitting right in the center of our fireplace mantel, with a candle on each side. The detail is PERFECT, and there is not one flaw to be seen anywhere! Before I bought it, I noticed that one person was critical of it, and I think they were saying that it had some imperfections. But, the one I got is truly perfect, exquisite! It arrived quickly, in just a few days. It is packaged in a thick styrofoam that gives it maximum protection. If you are thinking about buying one of these, I would recommend it highly! What's not to love?
