{"product_id":"red-spotted-severums","title":"Red Spotted Severums","description":"\u003cp\u003eRed Spot Severums are s selectively bred colour variant of the infamous Green Severums, native to the tributaries of the Amazon River basin in South America. Growing up to 25cm in length, Red Spot Severum are often considered a ‘gentle giant’ of the aquarium with their vibrant yellow gold bodies littered with bright orange and red spots.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRed Spot Severum are oval in shape and have a similar disposition to discus. They are also considered highly intelligent, recognising their owners and being highly interactive through the aquarium glass.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRed Spot Severum can be kept as a single severum, alongside other fish, in a male-female pair or in groups of five or more to manage aggression. A single severum requires an aquarium 280 litres+, for larger numbers there’ll need significantly larger aquariums.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAlthough Severums are larges considered peaceful, they can become aggressive and highly territorial towards other fish when mating and spawning.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRed Spot Severum are renowned for destroying live plants and vegetation. To mimic their natural environment and promote natural behaviours, consider hardscape materials with smooth surfaces such as rocks and bogwood. Use sand or smooth gravel as a substrate, simulating the natural bed of the Amazon basin tributaries.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAt Wirral Aquatics we feed our Severums \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.wirralaquatics.co.uk\/products\/ebo-foods-mussel-sticks-125g\"\u003eEBO Mussel sticks\u003c\/a\u003e, \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.wirralaquatics.co.uk\/products\/ebo-foods-pro-soft-artemia\"\u003eEBO Pro Soft artemia\u003c\/a\u003e and Spirulina.
