|diet=:Not a great algae eater, prefers a meaty diet with blanched vegetable supplements. If using floating pellets this fish will find them when they attach to the glass of the aquarium because of water tension and snack on them.  However because it is not designed to do this it ends up looking rather clumsy and often will drop the pellet or miss it completely.  This activity however was only observed after the fish was very well established in the tank and it would not do this before as it is very shy until it gets use to the surroundings.
