I took three pairs and put each pair in a ten gallon tank with a thick cover of Giant salvinia and a clump of Java moss. I fed baby brine shrimp, frozen bloodworms, blackworms and a flake food slurry. Changed 70% of the water every two weeks. Filtration in by a box filter with floss and rocks only. Many fry appeared in all three tanks. A very pretty fish!
