Peaceful, small bottomdweller that should be kept in a
school of at least 8-10 fishes. The aquarium should be
planted on the sides and background preferably with fine
leaved plants. A part of the bottom of the aquarium
should be free and should be sandy because they like to
search after food in it and their tender barbels are easily
damaged. You can keep them together with other small,
peaceful fishes. You should give them small live food. Small dry food is accepted as well. Breeding is not easy. After a large changing of the water with cooler water the eggs are laid and fertilized between fine leaved plants. After spawning the parents should be removed. When the young fishes are swimming free you can raise them with vinegar eels and baby brine shrimp, and some days later with fine crushed dry food. |
