Aphyosemion bitaeniattum

Tank mates: Best kept in a species-specific tank to prevent aggression and cross-breeding with other species, though smaller, peaceful dwarf cichlids, tetras, or certain catfish species can sometimes be suitable tank mates in a sufficiently large, well-planted community aquarium with ample hiding places. Keeping A. bitaeniatum with their own species in a ratio of two females to one male is a recommended practice to reduce stress on females.
