I know that they come from the rio xingu in Brazil. They are best kept in 80 degrees since the xingus temp is warm.
they are not to agressive. They'll eat algae wafers & vegetable matter. The biggest specimen that I saw was 8".I
have heard they can get 10-12". Gorgeous fish, sometimes called orange spotted pleco. scobinancistrus sp.
