SetupPlanted aquarium with soft, slightly acidic water and calm flow. Dense planting with some open swimming areas suits them well; a dark substrate helps their colours. Gentle filtration is ideal.
Care LevelUndemanding and hardy. Weekly 25% partial water changes, stable parameters and a balanced diet of quality flakes and small live or frozen foods keep them in excellent condition.
