Looks like an L095:yes:
They come from the Rio Negro river system and live in standing water which means they do not require a strong current, they also produce a lot of waste so plenty of water changes needed. They are omnivores, so the diet should include veggies as well as meaty foods. Get pretty big, up to 50cms:yes:
oh and can get territorial as they age so plenty of hiding spaces should be provided.
Temp 25-29c PH 5.5-7.5
above info referenced from back to nature l number book.
