About the Broken Line Royal Pleco

Name: Broken Line Royal Pleco

Max Size: The Broken Line Royal Pleco, scientifically known as Panaque nigrolineatus, is a large sizedΒ pleco that can reach an average size of around 10-12 inches in length in an aquarium.

Recommend pH: The Broken Line Royal Pleco thrives in slightly acidic to neutral water conditions, with a recommended pH range of 6.5-7.5.

Recommended Temperature (Β°F): Maintain the aquarium temperature for the Broken Line Royal Pleco between 75-82Β°F (24-28Β°C).

Diet: Broken Line Royal Plecos are primarily herbivorous and have a specialized diet. They require a significant amount of wood in their diet, as it aids in their digestion. They also consume algae, plant matter, and vegetable-based foods. Providing driftwood and specialized pleco sinking pellets or tablets is essential to meet their dietary needs.

Temperament: Broken Line Royal Plecos are generally peaceful and non-aggressive. They are known for their calm and docile nature, making them suitable for community aquariums. However, like all plecos, they may become territorial and may compete for hiding spots and territories.

Schooling or Non-Schooling Fish: Broken Line Royal Plecos are non-schooling fish and prefer to have their own space. They are solitary by nature and don't require the presence of conspecifics.

Possible Types of Tank Mates: Broken Line Royal Plecos can be housed with a variety of peaceful community fish species. They are compatible with other non-aggressive bottom-dwelling fish, such as Corydoras catfish, peaceful tetras, rasboras, and other similar-sized species.

Behavior: Broken Line Royal Plecos are primarily nocturnal and spend most of their time scavenging for food and exploring their surroundings. They are known for their ability to attach themselves to surfaces, especially wood, using their specialized mouthparts. They are excellent algae grazers and can help control algae growth in the aquarium.

Fun Fact: Broken Line Royal Plecos are prized for their striking appearance, featuring a broken or interrupted line pattern along their body. This unique pattern adds an interesting visual element to the aquarium. With their peaceful temperament and efficient algae-eating habits, Broken Line Royal Plecos are a popular choice among aquarists who seek both beauty and functionality in their aquariums.

Perhaps the best store on island to get freshwater fish. They have a huge variety, including higher end freshwater fish (discus, puffers, flowerhorns , oddballs, ect) I’ve stocked a few tanks with their fish. They quarantine well and keep it real on how their fish are doing in shop.

Had a great experience here. I was looking for a unicorn/alicorn betta and spoke with the owner, Josh, about it. I ended up using his fish importing services to import a fish from Jakarta, and he brought in a few more white opaque or unicorn type half moon bettas too, to add to the variety in store. I got a sneak peak of the store while it was shut down for one week for a proper quarantine of its new fish. The owner knows his fish and keeps them healthy. A very different experience from a Petco or PetSmart! A Petco employee even recommended I go here for more unique betta fish. Note that they carry other types of fish too, plus Aquatic plants and some aquarium equipment. Pictured are some of the giant bettas, the alicorn betta, and i believe a beautiful ram.

Wonderful shop with lots of variety. Has the most unique selection of fish on the island, and at a reasonable price! Staff is friendly and very helpful when we have questions or concerns. Love coming here and seeing the jokes around the store. Also, Vinnie!

The owner, Josh, is not just knowledgeable about the fish, but also plants and tank issues. I am new to fish tanks and he has been extremely helpful in answering my questions and offering suggestions to make my experience easier. Parking is a bit tricky, but certainly worth it.

They have rare plants you can't find at most places. Got lucky we got a few; my husband is happy. This is one of his favorite places. They get pretty busy, so be patient. The staff are very helpful.
