Aquarium: An aquarium needs a minimum of 200cm.
The aquarium should be decorated with stones, driftwood (roots), so hiding places. And for the soil the best filter sand can be used. Plants can be but must strengthen you very well. They are real zandhappers they find their food by taking mouthfuls of sand and then seven and spit out. The male makes a territory where the female can go its course and the male guards the territory that can be 1 to 1.5 meters. After being deposited, the female takes the eggs into her mouth and brood them As soon as the eggs hatch, the male takes over part of the task. Also read the extensive article on the Geophagus sp. altifrons.No external differences have been observed except during spawning when the ovipositor of the female is visible.Favoured habitats are likely similar to those observed in related species with the fish congregating around gently sloping marginal zones with soft substrates of bare sand or mud near shores or islands.Depending on locality other features can include scattered rocks, submerged tree roots, branches and leaf litter.
