{"product_id":"banjo-catfish","title":"Banjo Catfish","description":"\u003cp\u003eBanjo cats (Bunocephalus coracoideus) are small catfish with long tails. They inhabit slow-moving streams in the Amazon, blending in with fallen leaf litter to avoid detection. They typically remain hidden during daylight hours, coming out at night to forage for food. They appreciate bloodworms and sinking pellets. A sandy substrate is highly recommended, as they burrow to hide and may scratch themselves on sharper or larger substrates.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e  If it looks like your banjo catfish is peeling almost like a reptile shedding, do not be alarmed. Banjo catfish are known to shed their outermost layer of skin occasionally like a snake or lizard. If they are shedding very frequently, have visibly irritated skin or welts, or have damaged barbels, this can be a sign of poor water quality and\/or bullying from other tankmates and should be addressed immediately. It is also common for these catfish to develop very rounded bellies, especially the females, so always take a second look if you suspect bloat.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eScientific Name: Bunocephalus coracoideus\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCommon Name: Banjo Catfish\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMax Size: 6\"\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003epH: 5.0-7.5\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHardness: Soft\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTemperature: 70-82°\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAggressiveness: Peaceful\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRegion of Origin: South America\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCaptive Bred or Wild: Wild Caught\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Fish \u0026 Bird Emporium","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50538295197779,"sku":null,"price":11.99,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1009\/0592\/files\/Banjo_Catfish_5-b_1200x1200_f0576c71-5102-4810-9107-bdacc1c864a7.webp?v=1790276741","url":"https:\/\/petcuisine.ca\/products\/banjo-catfish","provider":"Pet Cuisine \u0026 Accessories","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
