True Treasures

Silver Dollars are small fish that are unusually circular. They are silver in color. They look like real Silver Dollars. They are smaller relatives of Pacus. Silver Dollars are plant eaters, therefore they make excellent additions to a community tank. 

Tank setup

Silver Dollars are schooling fish and should be kept in schools of five or more. They are shy fish and don't like bright light. They need swimming room. Live plants may be ate by these fish.

Feeding

Since Silver Dollars are herbivorous they need lots of plant type food in their diet. Crushed up vegetable or algae wafers would be a good treat. They should also be fed flake food daily. Make sure that they get enough food because other fish may out-eat them.

Tank Mates

Idea tank mates would be about any other fish. These are not aggressive and will NOT eat any meat.
