). This is a local specimen of Senegalus native to Lake Turgana in Africa. Compared to the typical Senegalus, it features a slightly slender and sharp body shape, and its pale beige to grayish body coloring creates a calming atmosphere. At approximately 15cm, it has a stable feeding pattern, making it a recommended specimen for captivity. It

is a hardy and easy-to-care-for species that easily adapts to artificial and frozen food, but due to its carnivorous nature, it should not be kept with fish that can fit in its mouth. It has a strong bottom-dwelling tendency, so a comfortable layout will help it thrive. A lid is essential.

■ Maximum size: Approximately 30cm (may exceed 40cm)
■ Water temperature: 24-28°C
■ Water quality: Weakly acidic to neutral
■ Personality: Relatively gentle, but carnivorous, it will prey on small fish.
