COMMON SHORTFIN
The ultimate foundation of our fishroom. Selected from strong, high-contrast domestic stock, our Common line features the classic camouflage pattern with bright starlight spotting. They are incredibly hardy, voracious algae consumers, and reach a strict maximum size of 5–6 inches—unlike standard common plecos that grow too large for average tanks.
