Synodontis Lucipinnis Care
Synodontis petricola or s.
Synodontis lucipinnis care. I purchased six fish from three different fish stores all of which are exclusively fish shops not all purpose pet stores. The aquarium should be spacious with a soft sandy substrate in order to protect the sensory barbels. If you don t already own one invest in a liquid testing kit that tests for ammonia nitrites nitrates and ph.
They all had the fish labeled as petricola so i thought i had purchased s. From the latin luci meaning bright or clear and pinnis meaning fin in reference to the light patches found at the base of the black triangles on the rayed fins especially on the anal fin. You will need to keep ahead on water changes though and ensure that there is always clean water in the tank.
