Fish Details, Description and Information Below:

🐟 L331 Fog Pleco (Hypostomus sp.)

The L331 Fog Pleco is a hardy and adaptable pleco with a soft, cloudy-gray base color, often patterned with faint darker mottling—hence its “fog” nickname. A member of the Hypostomus genus, it is well-suited for larger aquariums with good water movement and plenty of hiding spaces. Known for its algae-eating ability, it also appreciates supplemental plant-based foods.
