  There are several options for a biotope tank modeled after the conditions in these stream habitats including
  
  1) sunny pools
  2) shaded shallows
  3) rocky rapids
  
  Water

  Tank

The substrate varies from mud to sand to scattered pebbles and river rocks, so sand to coarse gravel is suitable for use in the aquarium. In all setups, use an effective filter that keeps the water clean and crystal clear.
