Parosphromenus sp. Sentang are known for their brilliant coloration, especially the males during the breeding season. Due to their sensitivity to water conditions, regular monitoring and maintenance of tank parameters are crucial to their well-being. They are a peaceful species, but due to their specific water requirements, they should generally be housed with species that have similar needs. They are primarily micropredators, so a diet of live or frozen small foods is recommended.
