| − | :The male has a gonopodium fin and smaller than the female who will have a rounder larger body shape. | + | |tank_compatibility=:A relatively peaceful fish, however, the male will chase the females and therefore they must be kept in the ratio of one male per two/three females. They should only be kept with similar sized robust, but not aggressive, fish. |

| − | + | |feeding_regime=:Feed once or twice a day. | |
| − | + | |environment_specifics=:They prefer a spacious tank with open swimming space as well as hiding places. They do best at lower-end brackish rather than freshwater. Keep them in salt-free water can lead to the [[Shimmies]]. | |

They are generally elongated, with strong lateral compression. The outstanding feature of this fish is the dorsal fin of the male, which he can extend out like a sail. | |
