Carnivorous. Prefers live foods, but also usually accepts frozen foods and dry foods.

Prefers a planted tank and looks best against a darker substrate. Use a tight fitting cover as all Killifish are expert jumpers. Keep either in a single species tank or with similar sized peaceful species. Males are more colourful and have longer fins.
