Description
The Pancake Batfish is an unusual recently discovered creature. It’s molted dark gray and shaped like a small flat pancake. It uses its pectoral fins to walk on the substrate.
The Pancake Batfish is a demanding fish due to its needs. It must have open thick substrate to walk on and bury itself if it feels threatened also food must be given directly in front of its position. Provide thick sandy substrate and house with a limited amount of larger slow moving peaceful fish.
To initiate feeding start with live feeder shrimp then try other meaty foods on a feeder stick.
