Pachypanchax sakaramyi is a peaceful species suitable for community tanks. However, they should be housed with similar-sized and temperamentally compatible tank mates. They are known to jump, so a well-fitted tank cover is necessary. This species is critically endangered in the wild due to habitat destruction and competition from invasive species.
