The institutional account records up to 33 cm total length, beyond the offered 6-8 cm and 9-10 cm grades. Collecting river and sex composition are unspecified.
Prepare mature well-oxygenated filtered adult housing and confirm measured supplier water and accepted foods. Allow swimming room and refuge, and check every fish feeds. Because the natural feeding account includes shrimp, crayfish and small fish, avoid swallowable companions. Natural stream temperatures above 15 C do not define a complete aquarium temperature range.
