| The aquarium should be set up with a sandy substrate and a 
                    lot of snail shells.  It is very important to provide 
                    at least one shell for each fish. A territory around the 
                    shell is made and defended fanatic.  The back and the 
                    sides of the aquarium should be arranged with rock 
                    structures for the other types of fish in the tank.  A 
                    few hard plants can be planted. You should feed them small live food. Occasionally dry food is accepted as well. Breeding is easy. The eggs are laid and fertilized in the shell of the female. The male departs immediately after spawning. After 24 hours the eggs hatch. After 6 days the young fishes are swimming free. The mother cares for them during about 2 weeks. You can raise them with baby brine shrimp and later with fine crushed dry food. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||
