Brachyplatystoma Tigrinum Zebra Sholvelnose Catfish 12cmOverview: Meet the striking Brachyplatystoma Tigrinum, also known as the Zebra Shovelnose Catfish. Its distinctive appearance, with bold zebra-like stripes, makes it a captivating addition to any aquarium.
Origin: Hailing from the freshwater river systems of South America, particularly the Amazon Basin, this species thrives in the fast-flowing waters of its native habitat.
Feeding: These omnivorous marvels eagerly consume various foods, showing a penchant for live or frozen fare like small fish, shrimp, and sinking pellets. Providing a diverse diet ensures their optimal health and vibrancy.
Tank Mates: Best suited for larger aquariums, they coexist well with larger, non-aggressive species like cichlids, large tetras, and other robust catfish. Smaller tank mates might be viewed as potential meals due to their predatory nature.
Aggression: While generally peaceful, their predatory instincts may surface if housed with smaller fish. They may also exhibit territorial behavior, particularly when mature or during breeding periods.
Experience Level: Ideal for intermediate to experienced aquarists due to their size requirements and specific needs. Knowledge of water quality, tank maintenance, and suitable tankmates is essential.
Water Parameters: Maintaining pristine water conditions is vital. Aim for temperatures between 72-80°F (22-27°C), pH levels around 6.5-7.5, and moderate water hardness to mimic their natural environment.

My Samoyed loved this!
Size: Medium
My dog’s favorite thing. This is his 4th toy and he loves it. The quality is great and it lasts very long. Definitely worth every penny you spend. It keeps my samoyed engaged every morning and every night. There is no choke hazard, so all dogs can use it

Long lasting
Size: Medium
My dogs love these and they last pretty long. I take them away when they get very small so I think they’re pretty safe.

Meant for bigger dogs than mine
Size: Small
I bought this for my 10 month old pup who’s a VERY aggressive chewer. I’m going to say this is made for a large, older (than mine) dog. She tried to chew a couple times but eventually just walked away from it when I offered it to her and she had only made a few scratches in it. If you have that bigger dog that’s an aggressive chewer, it would be a good value for your money and will keep the engagement high for a long time with its heavy duty quality.

Finally… a dog chew that doesn’t become a homemade prison shank
Size: Medium
My dog has a real talent: turning every “tough chew” into a sharp, weaponized shard that could star in an episode of Locked Up: Canine Edition. But THIS chew? Absolute game changer.
For the first time ever, I can relax—no splinters, no pointy edges, no fear he’s secretly crafting a shiv under the couch. Just happy, safe chewing that actually lasts longer than five minutes.
It’s durable, it’s safe, it keeps him busy, and I no longer feel like I’m living with a furry little inmate planning an escape.
Highly recommend if your dog chews like he’s got nothing but time.

Would buy again
Size: Small
Would have given 5 stars, but my dog was able to chew this down pretty quickly, so not the most durable. I do like that this is made with better material than other dog chews, so I would buy again.
