Tank mates: This is a predatory, nocturnal fish, so larger, peaceful African barbs, tetras, and cichlids that inhabit the upper water layers, avoiding smaller fish that could be eaten. A large tank with plentiful hiding spots, like driftwood, caves, and dense vegetation, is crucial to minimize stress and territorial disputes. Housing Eel Catfish alone or with their own species in a dimly lit tank is often the best approach due to their predatory nature.
