Garra flavatra  - This fish is a bottom feeder and has a bronze slender body with darker and lighter patches.

Prevalent in the middle east, these algae eaters are ideal for helping to keep your tank algae free as they are always moving and cover a lot of ground. While peaceful, they can become aggressive towards each other and should be kept in groups of five or more to temper their aggression. They also like a well planted tank, preferably with a high water flow, well oxygenated and filtered.
