Description

Panda Garra are native to the mountainous regions of Western Myanmar. Growing up to 10cm in length, these active, curious, freshwater fish are best identified by their dark bodies with vertical bands of yellow interspersed along the length of their bodies.

Panda Garras are often a popular choice for hobbyists as they are excellent at grazing on the biofilm and algae around your aquarium.

Best kept individually or in groups of five or more as they can be territorial within their own kind. Panda Garras thrive best in highly oxygenated water with strong filtration where they can enjoy swimming against the current. To mimic their natural environment, consider lots of hardscape materials such as rock and driftwood – they need to be smooth to protect their underbellies, similarly consider a fine substrate that will not damage their underbellies. Panda Garras are great jumpers, be sure to secure the lid on your aquarium.

Diet: At Wirral Aquatics we feed our Panda Garras EBO Pro soft spirulina and artemia, algae wafers and mussel sticks. Our Panda Garras also enjoy live foods such as tubifex and bloodworms.

Every aquarium is different. These are a guide based on water chemistry, adult size and temperament. Individual fish have their own personalities. Introduce new tank mates gradually, keep groups at the right numbers, and watch how everyone settles in. Ask our team if you'd like advice for your setup.

Ordering livestock

We strive to ensure that we honour all orders placed online. However, we are a small, busy shop and tracking livestock inventory can be challenging. If we are unable to fulfil your order, we will contact you as soon as possible to discuss options so that you can decide how you would like to proceed.

If livestock are appearing out of stock on our website, it does not necessarily mean that they are not available in store. If there is something that you are looking for, please contact us and we will be happy to discuss what is possible.

If you would like to view footage of the particular fish that you are looking to purchase, please contact us and we will send footage as per your request.
