Bought this fish for my 400-gallon tank. It’s active and peaceful, doesn’t bother other fish. Adjusted the tank setup to include plenty of open space and hiding spots. It’s grown steadily over the past six months and seems very healthy.

The fish arrived healthy and looks vibrant. It’s not aggressive and stays near the back of the tank. I’m happy with the size and coloration. Needs a large tank, but it’s worth it for the visual appeal.

Installed this in a 350-gallon tank with a good flow system. It’s active but calm, and doesn’t chase other fish. The color is striking, especially in the light. Very satisfied with the purchase.
