I had a pair some time ago that didn't do well in my community tank.
They never ate much algae, the male harrassed the female to death then
died himself. I think the temp was too high for them at 77-80 in the
summer. They are a killifish which will languish at those temps.
It's very important that they have vegetables in their diet. They
don't eat just any algae, it has to be nice green hairy algae.

I got a pair of these a couple of says ago. They seem to be surface fish
that lazy around all day and all night. For a fish that is supposed to rival
the SAE, I have not seen them touch any algae yet. The male is a little
short with the female. They change colour tike a chameleon! But otherwise,
not very interesting.

Could be my temp at 79-80 oF. They like cooler temperatures.
