Green Severum are native to the northern Amazon basins of the Negro, Amazon, and Orinoco rivers. They are primarily a Gold Severum colour variation. They are specifically bred in captivity to enhance the red colour of the fish.<\/p>\n
The red-spotted severum is particularly appealing and has a tendency to grow bigger than other severums. In fact, their striking orange-red hue, which can be observed on their stomachs, pelvic fins, and anal fins, is the main reason enthusiasts breed them. They also have extremely brilliant red eyes.<\/p>\n

In a 75 gallon or bigger tank, they will get along well with little Plecos, catfish, medium schooling fish, and South American cichlids.<\/p>\n The omnivorous Green Severum will eat vegetables, flakes, frozen food, live food, and freeze-dried food. Be careful that Red Spotted Severum or Golden Red Spot Severum may consume real plants, therefore well-placed plastic plants are preferable for the aquarium environment.<\/p>\n They seem to particularly enjoy frozen peas and lettuce, with Romaine lettuce being a better choice than Iceberg.<\/p>\n III.
