 L. roloffi, like its South American cousins, is a small, peaceful fish suitable for any community display aquarium. Unfortunately, L. roloffi is only rarely seen for sale, but perhaps a good aquarium dealer would be able to track down a few specimens if asked. This is a hardy species that can be kept even by novice aquarists. Because these are schooling fish they should be kept is large groups of at least 10 to 15 individuals. |
