Relevant Information: A small and pretty species which is similar to C.xinguensis from the Xingu River in Brazil. Aquarium care: This is akin to most of this genus, very peaceful, and would be best housed with small to medium tank mates such as Tetras, Rasboras and Danios or in a species tank for breeding purposes.
