Special requirements

  • Breeding Substrate

    Requires a flat surface for egg-laying, such as a piece of slate, large plant leaf, or flowerpot, ideally positioned at a 30-degree angle in moderate water flow.

  • Social Pairing

    Best results for breeding and social stability are achieved by housing a group together until pairs naturally form.

  • Habitat Balance

    Thrives in well-planted aquariums but requires significant open swimming space to accommodate its tall body profile.

  • Dietary Variety

    Requires a balanced intake of both vegetable-based foods and meaty items like brine shrimp and bloodworms to maintain its brilliant sheen.
