I keep two of these fish in an oddball tank with fish that can defend themselves. They are an aggressive solitary fish, mine are seperated by endless caves. I wouldn't advise them for the average community tank although there are reports of them living happily in community tanks. But being one of the more aggressive Botias I would advise it to be kept solitary with fish that are capable of defending themselves. (Botia hymenophysa, B. helodes, B. beauforti, B. berdmorei, and B. reversa) I keep B.berdmorei which is one of the less aggressize 'Tiger Loaches' some of the others are worse and would be well out of the question. Check out Loaches online, which fish is it you plan on keeping?
