Completely depends on what species and your level of dedication. I found my GPO to be extremely easy to keep and take care of.

But thats because he was plumbed into a 500 gallon system kept at 55 degrees and I have access to as much live food as I want to feed him. I also didnt keep him to the point that he was a size problem.
