This gorgeous relative of the SAE-Siamese Algae Eater (Crossocheilus siamensis) is a peaceful shark that prefers a high-flow current in a robustly planted tank. The Redline is now considered endangered in the wild but is making a big comeback in the aquarium trade due to farm raising. Water conditions can be a little versatile with fairly soft, to slightly hard, around neutral (pH 6.5-7.5). This species may nibble on some plants that are soft-leaved, but is not interested in intimidating plants like anubias, swords, or grasses.  It adapts best to a heavily planted tank, and instead of eating those plants he will use the plants as more of a territorial border or refuge. The redline is an omnivore that from our experience will definitely eat some hair algae. Click here to see a pic of a small school of Redlines.
