The original field account records stream and swamp habitats, with individuals slipping between leaf-litter refuges. Its colour can vary, and the Buff-backed name does not guarantee one fixed shade. Reference feeding includes bottom-dwelling worms, small crustaceans and insect larvae; the offered 10-15 cm measurement does not specify sex.
Confirm measured holding water and foods accepted by the lot. Provide mature filtered accommodation with sheltered bottom areas and a secure lid. Offer appropriately sized aquatic invertebrate foods, observe intake without forcing the fish into the open and assess adult compatibility. Exact numerical aquarium targets remain unconfirmed.
MBI-PRE-018 (10 cm - 15 cm): 10 fish per bag; maximum 8 bags per box.
MBI-PRE-018: minimum 20 individual fish. Prices are per individual fish. Existing quotation and business terms govern shipment arrangements.
