I , myself would love to have one of these fish and believe me I am not trying to dissuade you from something that you want, but just want to make you aware that these fish are not the easiest fish to keep in the aquarium.

Dentoid and a very few others have done fine with their fish and I wish them success, but there are others who have lost theirs within a month's time or less. Good luck with it if you decide to get one in th efuture.

Dr. S, as usual beautiful photo of Spotty!

I see that, Caitrina... how sad all the RIP's... way more than the ones still with their aquarists. For me, it would be a couple of years down the road, I'm sure. We'll see how things go. It also seems that a deeper tank is more important for them, too? I would hate to have one jump. I'll definitely consider carefully before deciding to add one for sure.

I'm making a list because with the way my brain works, I'll forget the things that I like before the time comes that I could actually consider introducing them!
