This intolerant fish should be kept as a pair. He
bites other fish, digs in the substrate and eats plants.
The aquarium should be set up with stones, driftwood and
roots that make caves and hiding places. A territory
is made. During the winter you should keep them at
lower temperatures. (15-18°C, 58-64°F) You should give them powerful live food. A part of the food should be vegetable. Breeding is easy. Up to 500 eggs are laid and fertilized on a previously cleaned stone. When the eggs are hatched the parents move the larvae to a breeding pit. Both parents care for the fry. |
