African Butterfly Fish (Pantodon buchholzi) can be moderately challenging to keep in aquariums. They have specific care requirements, including a warm and stable water temperature, proper tank setup, and a diet that can be difficult to replicate in captivity. Adequate space, live or frozen food, and a secure lid to prevent jumping are essential for their well-being. While they may not be ideal for beginners, experienced aquarists can successfully maintain African Butterfly Fish with careful attention to their needs.
