This predatory fish is not suited for our aquarium at home,
but for a large public aquarium in a zoo. He is very
intolerant to species if their own kind. You should
not keep the together with other fishes that are much
smaller, because they are eaten. The aquarium should
be set up with hard plants and you should leave enough free
swimming space in the middle and upper water layers. You should give them large, live food such as fish, insect larvae and shrimp. Breeding in the aquarium has not been reported yet. Species from Asia are on CITES-list, appendix I. No trade is allowed without official papers.
