Relevant Information: |
This species is very rare in the
hobby. Aquarium Care: This is akin to most
of this genus, very peaceful, and would be best housed with
small to medium sized tank mates 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. |
