Pseudomystus sp. cf stenomus is a unique species that tends to shy away during the day and come alive after the lights dim. Ensure there are plenty of hiding spots, roots, and driftwood in the tank. These fish are peaceful but should not be housed with overly aggressive tank mates that may outcompete them for food. They enjoy a varied diet, including live and frozen foods.
