False Siamese Algae Eater "Garra cambodgiensis"

Description

Garra cambodgiensis is a freshwater cyprinid fish native to Southeast Asia. In the aquarium trade it is commonly known as the Cambodian Logsucker, False Siamese Algae Eater, or Stone-lapping Minnow. It occurs throughout parts of the Mekong, Chao Phraya, and Mae Klong river systems in Thailand, Laos, Cambodia, Vietnam, and nearby regions. 

Quick Facts

  • Scientific name: Garra cambodgiensis 
  • Family: Cyprinidae (carps and minnows) 
  • Adult size: Typically 10 to 15 cm (4 to 6 in.) 
  • Diet: Primarily algae, biofilm, and plant matter, with some small invertebrates accepted in captivity. 
  • Temperament: Generally peaceful with unrelated fish, but can be territorial toward its own species and similar-shaped fish. 

Aquarium Care

For best results:

  • Keep in a well-oxygenated aquarium with moderate to strong water flow. 
  • Provide rocks, driftwood, and surfaces where algae and biofilm can grow. 
  • Maintain temperatures around 22 to 28°C (72 to 82°F)
  • If keeping multiples, a group of 5 or more helps spread aggression.
