Description: The Xingu Vittata, or Candy Striped Pleco, is a soft tan with distinct black stripes. These Plecos are carnivorous and do best with a meaty diet. Xingu Vittata Plecos only reach around 4 inches when fully grown, but can still be territorial with conspecifics so use caution when mixing with other Plecos.
