| Up Keep: |
A tough fish that can hadle a variety of water conditions. Tank should have some hiding places. |
| Breeding: |
Little is known about breeding these fish. |
| Comments: |
They love things to hide in, small secure spaces, some
caves or forests are recommended... Loves plants, and mine
seemed to be attached to the bala sharks... It likes to
have lots of fish in the tank with it...
When they are young they make great cleaning fish and they
will clear the algae up real fast. However when they mature
they become territorial and aggressive. They will harass
their tankmates continually. For this reason I have placed
them in the aggressive fish category. |
