I'm not considering one of these, but came across it on liveaquaria. Looks like an amazing fish!

Yeah. I thought so. Apparantly it's nocturnal and very difficult to feed in captivity. Somewhat live a moorish idol i suppose. Just thought i'd share my discovery.

sounds like a risky buy to me, do you have the time to dedicate to this fish?

There have been threads about them. No home success stories that I've seen. In public aquaria, maybe. But a species tank is a must.

I do not have the time for one, but I mentioned that earlier. I just thought it was a cool fish. Just curious about any possible success stories.
