L066 is a popular Hypancistrus from the Rio Xingu basin. Black-and-white striping pattern that gives it the "King Tiger" common name. Wild collected most commonly; captive-bred available.
Care identical to L046 and L260. 4-5 inch adult size. Cave-spawner. Diet emphasizes carnivorous foods (bloodworms, brine, sinking pellets) over algae - L-numbers are not the algae-eaters that bristlenose plecos are.
