| − | :These fish are difficult to sex visually, mature females may appear plumper. | + | |tank_compatibility=:Peaceful with tank mates but may tussle amongst themselves. Should be best kept singly when adult for this reason. If the tank is large enough a group of 5 or more can be kept. Is generally peaceful towards other fish. Best kept with similar sized peaceful fish. |

| − | = | + | |environment_specifics=:These fish are grazers and for that reason cannot be kept with live plants as they will be eaten. They need a laterally spacious well filtered tank with a secure lid. They do not appreciate very bright lights and need [[bogwood]] and rock hiding places. |

The body colouration is cream to light brown in base colour which is then marked with seven to nine dark vertical bands. The forehead is yellow as is the adipose fin. The dorsal and pelvic fins have dark bands also while the other fins are mostly translucent. | |
