Climatic aspects of keeping of armoured catfishes

Armoured catfish have gained acceptance within the last few years at once.
There are still problems of keeping them in an aquarium

Most aquarium catfishes come from South America, they are widespread there. People find the locations that are known to catfish families in the northern countries, Colombia and Venezuela. In the southern countries. people only think of Corydoras undulatus from Argentina. On this continent the climatic conditions vary considerably. Countries like Uruguay and Argentina show a subtropical climate. Paraguay is open in contrast to a small stretch of coast on the east and Southern Brazil still has oceanic tropical climate counts. The climate of Southern Brazil is a transitional climate from the tropics to the milder subtropics. This, therefore indicates that tank catfishes don't have always to be kept in a stable environment.

Erik Schiller: Born 1968 in Dohna (Saxony), married with two small children. Connected since earliest youth with the Aquaristik. I have dealt with viviparous tooth carpsand barbels from my early years. I still have enough time for Rineloricaria and Peckoltia. For 10 years now my main emphasis has lain with the family of the Callichthyidae. and particularly the last few years the genre Aspidoras.
