The fish arrived healthy and vibrant. The coloration is bright with clear yellow, blue, and orange markings. It’s active and shows interest in the tank environment. Needs a large tank and should not be kept with small or peaceful fish due to its aggressive nature.
Nicholas Parsons –
Great color and movement. Set up in a 100-gallon tank with proper water parameters. It’s not shy and dominates the space. Make sure to provide hiding spots for other fish to avoid conflicts.
Jessica Sharp –
The fish looks impressive and matches the photos. However, it was quite aggressive and chased a smaller fish in the tank. I now keep it alone in a large tank with stable water conditions.
