- Water Conditions: Temperature , with a GH of at least 6 to support healthy molting.
- Diet: Omnivores, feeding on leftover fish food, algae wafers, and protein-rich sinking pellets

Compatibility: Generally safe with fish, but may pick at delicate shrimp or slow-moving bottom dwellers; they can be territorial with their own kind.Behavior: They frequently climb, so a secure aquarium lid is highly recommended to prevent escape.
