Albino Eye Biters need plenty of swimming space along with rockwork for structure. They do well with other similarly sized African cichlids but should not be housed with small fish, as they are natural predators. Stable water quality and a high-quality filtration system are essential for long-term success.

Feed a quality carnivore pellet along with frozen foods like krill, shrimp, silversides, and other meaty foods. A varied diet will help maintain their health and vibrant coloration.
