I agree with the T. exilis ID. Not even close to being a C. perugaie.

Should be fine - will probably feed on any fry if given the chance, but like most Tatia/Centromochlus, these are primarily surface feeders. They will thrive on frozen bloodworm/mosquito larvae and are usually happy to feed at dusk with the tank lights off. If you can get some more, a ratio of 2F/1M is good, 3F/2M if you can afford it.
These are easily sexed - I'd say yours is a male BTW.

And a very skinny one at that! If it's yours, suggest feeding it up on bloodworm after lights out, as this is the one food that they seem to find irresistable.fishlover88;3158687; said:
Almost sure it's a female too, but with the bright white background it's hard to be sure. Again, best in groups, 5 (with the same M/F ratio as the tatia), and very inactive during daylight, but when the lights are out and food added, they are like a pack of crazy things! I had a group of these, as well as some Tatia sp(2), but lost all but a pair of the sp(2), but am hopeful that one day I'll come across some more as they are not that common in stores over here.
