Leopard Bushfish Aquarium Care Guide

Keeping Leopard Bushfish in an aquarium requires the right conditions.

Aquarium Information

• Care level: intermediate
• Temperament: semi-aggressive
• Diet: carnivore
• Minimum tank size: 75_gallons
• Compatibility: Best kept with similarly sized, robust, and non-aggressive fish. Avoid very small fish as they may be seen as prey. Can be kept singly or in a pair in a sufficiently large tank with ample hiding spots. Avoid keeping with fin-nippers or overly boisterous species.
• Special requirements: Requires a well-planted aquarium with plenty of hiding places such as caves, driftwood, and dense vegetation. A tight-fitting lid is essential as they are known jumpers. Subdued lighting is preferred. Good filtration is necessary, but strong currents should be avoided. They appreciate a varied diet of live and frozen foods.
