Electric Blue Hap

Care requirements

Care level: Intermediate.

Because it uses the middle part of the aquarium, leave enough open swimming space instead of crowding that part of the aquarium.

The listed lifespan is up to 10 years.

Water parameters

The temperature range for this fish is 24–28 °C, which fits many tropical freshwater aquariums. Choose other fish with overlapping temperature needs.

The pH range for this fish is 7.5–8.5. That points to neutral to slightly alkaline water, but stability is more important than sudden corrections.

The GH range for this fish is 10–25 dGH. That gives some flexibility, but sudden changes are usually more stressful than a stable value that is slightly imperfect.

Temperament and compatibility

Electric Blue Hap needs more careful companion choice because the temperament data suggests space, boundaries, or similar-sized fish may matter.

Because this fish uses the middle part of the aquarium, compatibility is easier when other fish are not all competing for the same swimming space.

Swimming zone and behavior

This fish uses the middle part of the aquarium, so leave enough open swimming space for movement and feeding.

Feeding

As an omnivore, Electric Blue Hap should receive a varied diet rather than one repeated food type.

Before adding this fish

• Choose other fish with overlapping temperature needs.
• Keep pH stable within the listed range instead of making sudden corrections.
• Choose other fish carefully around this temperament.
• Offer a varied diet that matches this species.
