L398 Tiger Pleco Panaqola Tankei SP 5cm

Overview: The L398 Tiger Pleco, scientifically known as Panaqolus tankei SP, is a captivating and somewhat rare species in the aquarium hobby. Renowned for its striking coloration and patterns, this pleco adds a touch of elegance and intrigue to any freshwater tank. Typically, it features a dark body adorned with vibrant orange or yellow stripes, mimicking the appearance of a tiger's coat. Adult sizes are manageable, making them suitable for a variety of aquarium sizes.

Origin: Native to the fast-flowing, clear waters of South America, particularly in parts of the Amazon Basin, the L398 Tiger Pleco thrives in environments with plenty of hiding spots and a strong current.

Feeding: This species is primarily herbivorous, requiring a diet rich in plant-based foods. High-quality sinking pellets, algae wafers, and blanched vegetables should constitute the bulk of their diet. Occasional offerings of protein, such as bloodworms or brine shrimp, can provide variety.

Tank Mates: L398 Tiger Plecos are generally peaceful and can be housed with a wide range of tank mates. Ideal companions include small to medium-sized, non-aggressive fish. They do well in a community tank setting as long as competition for food is minimized.

Aggression: This species is relatively peaceful but can show territorial behavior towards other bottom dwellers, especially other plecos. Providing ample space and hiding spots can reduce aggression.

Experience Level: Due to their specific care requirements, including the need for clean, well-oxygenated water and a specialized diet, L398 Tiger Plecos are best suited for aquarists with some experience. Beginners willing to research and commit to their care may also find success.

Water Parameters:
  • Temperature: 76-82°F (24-28°C)
  • pH: 6.5-7.5
  • Hardness: Soft to moderately hard
  • It is crucial to maintain high water quality and stable parameters to keep these plecos healthy.
Keeping the L398 Tiger Pleco requires a commitment to recreating their natural habitat and meeting their dietary needs. However, for those willing to put in the effort, the L398 offers a unique and rewarding addition to the aquarium.

So much easier to apply
Size: 0.47 Ounce (Pack of 2)
These are small for the price but man oh man does it make it easier! My daughter is allergic to most sunscreens so this is our go to kind however I hate how hard it is to get off of your hands after using the lotion form. This is so much neater and it doesn't get all over me. It also doesn't seem to stain the suits - or is just easier to avoid getting on suits - than the lotion form. It does the same great job of preventing sunburn. Makes reapplication so much better because you don't end up with sand all over you - since you couldn't rinse off the lotion the first time around.

Great for adult faces too
Size: 0.47 Ounce (Pack of 1)
Advertised for babies but this is my go to sunscreen for my face, especially when traveling. It is a stick so doesn't have to go in your liquids bag for TSA. No worrying about it leaking either. Easy to use, and works well. It does leave a whitish cast but that helps me make sure I got every spot covered. Would rather have a whitish cast then end up red with sunburn.

Tear Free and No Sunburn
Size: 0.47 Ounce (Pack of 1)
This stick is pretty small, but great for carrying with you. It does not glide very well across the skin, however, my son's eyes are very sensitive and it prevents it from gliding too far over and risking burning his eyes. Spreading with fingers afterwards is always a good idea, leaves a bit of a cast but I am very fair so not too bad, easy for reapplication as well. The only major drawback is how drying this product is to the skin, not immediately, but over the course of several days. Not sure if that is all 100% zinc oxide products, or if this one is just lacking in something. Overall a good safe option for little faces that is tear free and wont run or burn eyes, and that works against UV.

Sun care for Babies.
Size: 0.47 Ounce (Pack of 1)
Great scent, coverage, and good on sensitive skin. My grand daughter is a blond, peaches and cream complexion, the sunblock works. No sunburned nose or cheeks this summer. We applied a swipe about every 90 min and it works for us. The little one has sensitive skin and we try to protect her completely. This product is now part of her sun care regimen. ( I even applied it to her hair part and ears)
