Two Spot Astyanax

Special requirements

• Careful Tankmate Selection

  Due to its large adult size and vigorous nature, it is unsuitable for communities containing smaller or sluggish species.

• Plant Restriction

  Will likely eat most aquatic plants. Stick to hardscape decor (wood, rocks) or only use tough-leaved genera like Anubias or Microsorum.

• High Water Flow

  Appreciates a degree of current flowing through the tank to mimic its natural, swiftly-flowing river habitats.
