Comments: Aquarium specimens prefer waters with 25°C mean temperature, pH=6.8, water hardness of 10 and areas with rocks, plants and driftwood.  Carnivorous, egg laying and peaceful community fish (Ref. 6398).  Bottom spawner, 5 months incubation.  Is very difficult to maintain in aquarium (Ref. 27139).
