Charax tectifer

The Charax tectifer lives in the benthopelagic, freshwater, pH range: 6.0 - 7.5, dH range: 20 environment.

I've had a group of Charax tectifer in the past and would really love to keep a Charax species again. And although 3 can hardly be called a group, I didn't hesitate. It's their shape that I particularly fancy. And their behaviour as well. More
