L398 Tiger Pleco Panaqola Tankei SP 5cmOverview: The L398 Tiger Pleco, scientifically known as Panaqolus tankei SP, is a captivating and somewhat rare species in the aquarium hobby. Renowned for its striking coloration and patterns, this pleco adds a touch of elegance and intrigue to any freshwater tank. Typically, it features a dark body adorned with vibrant orange or yellow stripes, mimicking the appearance of a tiger's coat. Adult sizes are manageable, making them suitable for a variety of aquarium sizes.
Origin: Native to the fast-flowing, clear waters of South America, particularly in parts of the Amazon Basin, the L398 Tiger Pleco thrives in environments with plenty of hiding spots and a strong current.
Feeding: This species is primarily herbivorous, requiring a diet rich in plant-based foods. High-quality sinking pellets, algae wafers, and blanched vegetables should constitute the bulk of their diet. Occasional offerings of protein, such as bloodworms or brine shrimp, can provide variety.
Tank Mates: L398 Tiger Plecos are generally peaceful and can be housed with a wide range of tank mates. Ideal companions include small to medium-sized, non-aggressive fish. They do well in a community tank setting as long as competition for food is minimized.
Aggression: This species is relatively peaceful but can show territorial behavior towards other bottom dwellers, especially other plecos. Providing ample space and hiding spots can reduce aggression.
Experience Level: Due to their specific care requirements, including the need for clean, well-oxygenated water and a specialized diet, L398 Tiger Plecos are best suited for aquarists with some experience. Beginners willing to research and commit to their care may also find success.

Works well to froth my instant latte
I got this because I've started drinking Clever Sleeptime Super Latte to replace giant magnesium pills at night. Its directions say it's highly recommended to froth it, so I got this to do that. So far so good, but Ive only been using it about a week. Other reviews report it not holding up so I will update my review if that happens.

Works and is engineered exactly as I expected it to be. Unlike SO MANY OTHERS.
Color: 2-Speed Rechargeable Set with Charging Base
I've ordered about 4 different automatic shakers from different brands. They all have different problems, motor not strong enough, charging cable on the front of the charging base (in the way on a counter), hard to open refil covers, small containers not holding enough salt/pepper. FINALLY this one checks all the marks I've been looking for. Its weighty too since its made of stainless. Large refil container, easy to remove just a twist. Grind selector is a twist at th e base with a clear arrow showing size. Large press button at top so you can hold it in any rotation in your hand and not have to look for the button/switch to turn it on. No cover that needs to be flipped open and then closed to put back into the base. Contacts for charge are on the back side and not at the bottom where salt can corrode the contacts. The list can go on but you get the idea. Just buy this one and be done with it!
