Peaceful schooling fish that can be kept in a community
aquarium together with other peaceful fishes. The
aquarium should be planted densely on the sides and
background. In the middle you should leave enough free
swimming space. A dark substrate and a dimmed light by
using floating plants bring out the colours of the fish.
A regular changing of the water is recommendable.
You should give them small live food. Dry food is accepted as well. Breeding is not difficult. In a darkened aquarium up to 130 eggs are laid and fertilized between fine leaved plants. You should use a spawning grid because the parents eat their own eggs. After spawning the parents should be removed immediately. After 1-2 days the eggs hatch. As soon as the young fishes are swimming free you can start feeding with very fine infusoria and a few days later with baby brine shrimp. |
