• Water chemistry pH 6.0–7.0 · GH 2–8 dGH. Ask about the water used for this shipment before acclimating. Keep ammonia and nitrite at 0 ppm.

Housing & compatibility

Give each fish a cave and use plants or wood to break up sight lines. Calm midwater fish can work in a roomy tank. Separate adults if chasing persists.

Offer small sinking pellets such as Hikari Vibra Bites Baby if the fish takes prepared food. Rotate in Hikari Bio-Pure Frozen Daphnia, brine shrimp, or small worms.
