An aquarium with a decent flow rate, decorated with a sandy substrate, smooth rocks and driftwood roots would simulate the natural habitat of P. marginatus. It is equally at home in a stiller, planted aquarium as well.
Also known as the common catopra, this is still quite a rare species in the hobby, although it’s becoming more readily available due to captive breeding efforts. It makes an interesting addition to the larger community or oddball tank.
