Pseudomystus Funebris keepers.

Post by Cory Ben »

Hi all, I'm looking for some information on keeping these, my LFS has a few but I can't find a lot of information on them. I currently have no knowledge of them at all, my main questions are:
1. What tank size?
2. Tank mates?
3. How many should I get for them to be comfortable?
4. Water parameters - I have soft water but I don't know exactly the full parameters. I know my PH is 6.9. Don't have a Gh and Kh kit.

I'll probably have more questions, I'll add them when I think of them.

Many thanks,
Ben.

Their habitat is almost exactly like that of Pseudomystus heokhuii.

Great, thanks. I think I'll give them a miss for now due to the really low ph.
