Rather peaceful fish that you can keep together with other
calm species from Lake Malawi. The aquarium should be
set up on the sides and background with a lot of stones and
rocks that form caves and crevices. In the middle you
should leave a lot of free swimming space. You should
keep one male together with several females. In nature they normally eat plankton. In the aquarium all live food like Artemia and dry food are eaten. Breeding is rather easy. After the eggs are laid they are taken in the mouth by the female. Then the eggs are fertilized by the male. Depending on the temperature the eggs hatch after a few days and the fry is released after about 21 days. You can raise the young fishes with baby brine shrimp and fine crushed dry food. |
