These fish are very aggressive to each other. The
aquarium should be set up with stones, driftwood and roots
that make hiding places. Plants can not be used
because they dig in the substrate very much during breeding
times. You can keep them together with other fishes of
the same size. You should keep them as a pair, in a
large aquarium you can keep them is a group.
You should give them live food such as Artemia or other small shrimp. Frozen and dry food are accepted as well. Breeding is rather easy. The eggs are laid and fertilized in a cave. The female cares for the eggs and the male defends the territory. After hatching the parents bring the larvae to a breeding pit. Now the males cares for the fry as well. You can raise the young fishes with baby brine shrimp. |
