Special requirements
Established Setup
Requires an established aquarium of at least 10 gallons with plenty of hiding places and a mature substrate.
Breeding Care
If breeding, move the egg-carrying female to a separate tank. Once hatched, return the female to the main tank and feed larvae newly hatched brine shrimp or liquid food.
Tank Mates
Should only be housed with small, peaceful fish to ensure they are not viewed as a food source.
