The Marbled Hatchet (Carnegiella strigata) is sometimes called a Marble Hatchet. It belongs to the family named Gasteropelecidae. Typically reaching a max size of about 2.0 inches in length, the Marbled Hatchet is passive in nature and moderately hardy in stamina. It's more active during the daytime and less at night, and will hang out or do best in the upper tank area. According to FishDB current data, captive breeding success is good and there are no external signs of sexual differences. Carnegiella strigata should not be housed in a tank less than 20 gallons in size. Tank parameters should be maintained with ph level between 5.5 - 7.5, temperature between 75 - 81 degrees fahrenheit, Some of the environmental concerns that you should strive to replicate in your home aquaria to promote succesful acclimation include keep 3 or more, high water quality, and planted aquarium.
