Information: |
There are three similar
looking species. C134
from Est. Amapá, Río Oiapoque in Brazil, C040
from Rondônia,
Brazil and C073
also from Rondônia,
Brazil. Aquarium Care: This is akin to most of
this genus, very peaceful, and would be best housed with small to
medium sized tankmates such as Tetras, Rasboras and Danios or in
a species tank for breeding purposes. Best
to purchase 6 individuals or more as they will be happier in a group.
Diet: Readily accepts a mixed and varied diet which
includes granular foods, tablet food, frozen bloodworm and good
quality flake to name but a few. |
