The fish arrived healthy and active. It’s a bit aggressive, so I made sure to keep it in a 30-gallon tank with plenty of hiding spots. It’s colorful and adds a nice touch to the display, though it doesn’t get along well with smaller fish.
Stephanie Randall –
Great color and lively behavior. I’ve kept it for three months now and it’s still active. The tank size is sufficient, and it’s easy to care for as a beginner fish.
Jennifer Kerr –
It’s aggressive and I had to remove a small shrimp that was near its territory. Still, it’s a beautiful fish and adds visual appeal to the tank.
