Special requirements
Leaf Litter & Botanicals
Benefits from dried leaf litter and driftwood branches to simulate its natural habitat, providing secondary food sources and beneficial tannins.
Careful Tankmate Selection
Very peaceful but easily intimidated. Must be kept with similarly-sized, sedate tankmates and not combined with boisterous or large species.
Gentle Filtration
Does not require strong flow; gentle filtration from an air-powered sponge filter is ideal.
