The fish are active and peaceful in a community tank. They thrive in soft, slightly acidic water. Easy to care for and add a nice color to the tank.

Arrived healthy and seem to be adjusting well. The coloration is slightly different from the photo, but still very attractive. Good for beginner aquarists.

I’ve kept them for three months now and they’re very social. They dig in the substrate and enjoy the bottom activity. Great addition to a planted tank.
