Ep. dageti (6~ cm total lenght (male); 4-5 cm (female)) is an easy fish and
you can breed your pair in a small covered tank (15-20 liters).
Ep. dageti has no water problem but use peat to prepar its water and to
cover the bottom tank. Eventually, add salt to prevent disease. (1 teaspoon
of salt - 15 liters)
Food: no problem ! You can use frozen Artemia, Chironomus, Grindal worms,
dried food.....
Breeding temperature: ~24-250C.
Incubation time: I think 15-20 days but I'm not sure .

Good luck !
