- Filtration: Moderate filtration with gentle water flow is ideal, as they prefer calm waters.

- Substrate: Fine gravel or sand is best to prevent injury.
- Decor: Provide plenty of live plants, driftwood, and rocks for hiding and swimming. They appreciate shaded areas.
- Lighting: Low to moderate lighting mimics their natural habitat.
Diet:
- Feeding: Asian Rummynose Barbs are omnivores and will accept high-quality flake or pellet food, as well as live and frozen foods like daphnia, brine shrimp, and bloodworms. They may also nibble on algae.
Behavior:
