Special requirements

  • Tank Cover

    Reported to jump out of tanks on occasion; a tight-fitting lid or lower water level is necessary to prevent escapes.

  • Feeding Behavior

    Primarily inhabits the upper water column; requires appropriately sized small food items to accommodate their slightly upturned mouths.

  • Social Environment

    Should be kept in schools of 6 or more to ensure natural behaviors and to encourage the best color display as they mature.
