CAM1755S
A territorial species that can be combined with other species requiring similar conditions. Good tankmates include some Alestiid tetras, Chaetostoma sp., Chiloglanis sp., some of the larger characins and barbs and rheophilic Synodontis species such as S. brichardi. It should not be kept with any other cichlids unless the tank is very large.
S. casuarius should be kept in pairs. A suitably large tank is required if you wish to house more than one pairtogether.
