📝 CARE NOTES
Keep in a fully cycled aquarium with cool, clean water and gentle filtration. Temperatures above 72°F can cause serious stress and illness. Use fine sand or a bare bottom—never small gravel that could be swallowed. Provide shaded hides, avoid bright lighting, and minimize handling because its delicate skin and external gills are easily damaged.
