Brochis splendens is a gregarious catfish favoring small schools, which helps them exhibit natural behaviors, feel secure, and reduces stress in a home aquarium. They are commonly mistaken for larger corydoras species due to their similar behavior and habitat requirements. Additionally, it's essential to equip their environment with gentle filtration and subdued lighting, as they originate from slow-moving river waters with ample plant cover.
