| Toward their own species they are very aggressive.  You 
                    should keep them as a pair.  The aquarium should be set 
                    up with stones and rocks to create holes and hiding places. 
                    In the middle you should leave enough free swimming space. They 
                    make a territory.  You can use some plants like Vallisneria to decorate the aquarium. They are omnivorous. You should give them a great variety of live, frozen and dry food. Breeding is easy at higher temperatures. Up to 360 eggs are laid and fertilized in a cave. The parents defend the territory. This species crossbreeds easily with Julidochromus ornatus. Young fishes of this crossbreeding are not fertile. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||
