In breeding times this fish has a very large territory and
he is extremely aggressive. You should keep one female
together with several females. The tank should be
decorated with substrate of fine gravel and a lot of rocks
that form caves and crevices. They can be kept together
with other fishes of equal size. Smaller fish will
likely be seen for food and consumed.
You should give them powerful live food such as small fish and shrimp. Breeding is not difficult. The eggs are laid and immediately after that the female takes the eggs in her mouth. They are fertilized by the male using the dummy egg method. The young fishes can be raised with baby brine shrimp. |
