Rather shy fish that should be kept with other cichlids from
Lake Tanganyika. Like all Tanganyikan set ups the tank
should be decorated with substrate of fine gravel, a
few shells and a lot of rocks that form caves and crevices.
The rocks should be firmly anchored. Some plants also
can be used as decoration. You must feed the fish with a great variety of live and frozen food. They don't like dry food. Breeding is not easy. More then 200 eggs are laid in a cave or a shell. The female takes care of the fry. After 48 hours the eggs hatch. After 8 days the young are swimming free. You can feed them with baby brine shrimp. |
