Conseils de nos experts :
A delicate acclimatization fish, relatively difficult to encourage feeding. Once this period has passed, if the space is large enough and the rest of the population is not a source of stress, life in the aquarium can be concerned. The Zanclus remains, however, a strong fish, dominating and little inclined to share its territory with any fish considered as a competitor. To be reserved for expert aquariophiles and large aquarium volumes.
