Calm, rather peaceful fish. Only during breeding times
they are rather aggressive to species of their own kind.
Then they dig in the substrate and make a territory.
The aquarium should be set up with well anchored plants,
stones and driftwood that make hiding places. In a
large aquarium you can keep several pairs with their own
territory. They regularly spawn. They are omnivorous. You should give them a great variety of live, frozen and dry food. Breeding is easy. 100-300 eggs are laid and fertilized on a previously cleaned substrate. When the fry is hatched the parents remove the larvae to a breeding pit. Both parents care for the fry very intensive. They can raise several nests each year. |
