| General: This fish has many desirable characteristics. They are very
colorful, lively and hardy. They like to swim in groups. They
are best kept with other lively fish of similar size. A tank with
bushy plants and lots of swimming room brings out their best.
Compatibility: Suitable tank mates include gouramis, other barbs, sharks, catfish, large active tetras, and Silver Dollars. Do not mix them with slow moving fish such as neons, guppies, or bettas, as they can be a fin nipper. (Community #5, Community #6, Community #7, Community #8, Community #9) Longevity: 2-3 years. Diet: Feed them standard foods such
as flakes twice a day. |
