Special requirements

  • Fine Sand Substrate

    Prefers fine sand substrate to prevent damage to barbels and allow natural foraging behavior.

  • Male Aggression Management

    Males are territorial and may fight in small tanks. Provide sufficient space and hiding spots if keeping multiple males.

  • High Oxygenation

    Requires well-oxygenated water with good flow. Occasional surface breathing is normal behavior.

  • Frequent Water Changes

    Sensitive to poor water quality. Maintain clean conditions with regular water changes.

  • Breeding Setup

    Use cooler water changes and increased flow to trigger spawning. Eggs should be removed or protected to prevent predation and fungus.
