Special requirements

  • Large Tank Space

    Requires a spacious aquarium due to its size and territorial tendencies, especially among males.

  • Soft Substrate

    Prefers fine sand substrate to protect sensitive barbels and support natural foraging behavior.

  • High Quality Live Diet

    Often reluctant to accept dried foods and requires live or frozen foods, especially during acclimation.

  • Clean and Stable Water

    Requires excellent water quality and stable parameters for long-term health.

  • Careful Social Grouping

    Males can be aggressive, especially during breeding, so tank mates and grouping must be managed carefully.
