Pflege ein Paar bereits seit 4 Jahren. Die Tiere sind relativ problemlos. Relativ deshalb weil sie durchaus agressiv werden können. Bekommen jetzt beide die Altersfärbung grau. In der Jugendfärbung sind sie komplett schwarz. Bezüglich der Pünktchenkrankheit kann ich nichts sagen. Habe ich bei keinen der beiden bisher gehabt. Lebten bis vor kurzem in einem 360Liter Becken (Problemlos). Jetzt sind sie einem 800 Liter Becken. Übrigends leben die Fische von Beginn an in einem Tropenbecken. Temperatur ca. 25 - 26 Grad.
