Special requirements
Mature Ecosystem
Requires a well-established aquarium with a mature substrate, plenty of hiding places, and sufficient natural algae growth.
Water Conditioners
Prefers slightly acidic water. The addition of Indian almond leaves and driftwood is recommended to release tannins and promote biofilm growth.
Breeding Isolation
If breeding, hatchlings must be housed in a separate aquarium to prevent predation by other tank mates.
