SPECIES SPECIFIC INFO
This is a predatory fish which spends most of its time hidden in caves or buried in the substrate. It should be kept in a tank with plenty of hiding places, lots of plants, soft substrate (essential), subdued lghtnig and only a gentle flow of water.
It really should be kept with fish of similar sizes becuase it might get tempted to have an afternoon (or mid-morning, or even midnight) snack.
