Do you mean Chaca chaca? If so they're lately ambush predators that I'd only keep with other of the same species.
Chaca chaca are some of my all time favorite cats, i have kept a bunch of them over the years. I have always kept them in community tanks with simular built bottom dwellers and larger top dwellers never little tetras,barbs or cichlids they will eat them. They are very slow moving fish so be careful housing them with fish that eat all the food. They do good with lots of driftwood i had one set up with chacas raphs and jaguar cats that was nice.
