GALIELLA RUFA Meaning and Definition

1. Galiella Rufa, also known as doctor fish, is a species of small freshwater fish belonging to the family Cyprinidae. It is native to the hot thermal springs in the Kangal region of Turkey.

   This fish species is notable for its unique feeding behavior where it consumes dead and unhealthy skin tissues of other fish as a part of their diet. Due to this intriguing behavior, Galiella Rufa has gained significant popularity in the field of spa therapy, particularly in the treatment of skin conditions such as psoriasis and eczema. The fish's therapeutic properties are believed to stem from a combination of its ability to exfoliate the skin and the natural enzymes present in their mouths that promote healing and regeneration.

   Doctor fish are generally small in size, typically measuring about 5-10 centimeters in length. They have slender bodies with shimmering silver scales and are characterized by their long and slender snouts. This snout is specialized for accessing and removing the dead and damaged skin cells of other fish when feeding. While they primarily rely on consuming skin tissues, Galiella Rufa also consumes algae and other organic matter found in their natural habitat.

   Galiella Rufa is highly adapted to its unique environment, thriving in warm temperatures ranging from 35 to 37 degrees Celsius. Consequently, it requires specific water conditions to survive, including a consistent supply of hot and mineral-rich water, which mimics its natural habitat. Due to its specialized environmental requirements, maintaining Galiella Rufa in an aquarium or spa setting can be challenging and requires careful monitoring of water parameters such as temperature, pH, and mineral content.
