They are very social fish and should be kept in groups of at least 6 to help them feel secure and display natural schooling behavior. Because of their small size, they do best with other peaceful nano fish such as small rasboras, pygmy corydoras, and shrimp.

Their diet should include high-quality micro pellets, crushed flakes, and small live or frozen foods like baby brine shrimp or daphnia. Providing a varied diet helps maintain their vibrant colors and active behavior.
