The Remora fish is active and interesting to watch. It attaches to the tank wall and stays calm. I’ve kept it for 6 months and it’s thriving in my 55-gallon tank. Water parameters are stable and I’ve adjusted the pH slightly to match its needs.

It’s a unique addition to my aquarium. The fish is curious and will follow the movement of other fish. I had to make sure the tank has enough space and proper filtration. It’s not for small tanks but works well in a medium-sized setup.

The fish arrived healthy and seems active. I’m still adjusting the water temperature and pH. It hasn’t attached to anything yet, so I’m not sure if it’s adjusting to the environment. Will monitor over the next few weeks.
