The Spotted Borneo Sucker is a very interesting freshwater loach that is found in shallow, clear, fast-flowing waters in Western Borneo. They are a good addition to community aquariums and an interesting oddity which is also a useful scavenger. As they prefer well-oxygenated water, their aquarium should be well aerated and have good water movement (e.g. power head/filter). A water temperature of 20 -25°C is preferable to maximise dissolved oxygen level, an important prerequisite for keeping this fish.
