Special requirements
Tall Aquarium
Requires an aquarium with adequate height to accommodate their tall dorsal and trailing ventral fins.
Manage Conspecific Aggression
Can be aggressive toward conspecifics. Keep in a group of at least 4 to disperse bullying, and provide plenty of line-of-sight breaks using tall plants or wood.
Pristine Water Quality
Has a very low tolerance for nitrates; water quality must be maintained to a high standard. Requires soft, acidic conditions as most specimens are wild-caught.
