My LFS has a gaggle of them for like $6/ea.. around 1-2". I was thinking of getting some, but I hear they get a bit aggro when larger, and I have plenty of those types.
Are H. Pearsii hard to come by?

The do get big. Only aggressive to conspecifics...one of their own. Really very mellow with like sized fish. Go for it.

Go ahead and buy some, $6 is a great price just make sure you have a large enough tank because males can get 16"+. They are not aggresive at all, at least mine are not, just keep them with fish their own size and you will be fine. Good luck.
I'm thinking of putting one in a 180g with Red Bay Snooks, Severums, Geo. Surinemensis, and maybe some Rainbow cichlids as well..
I am guessing they would be a bad idea with stingrays.. that is why I am a bit more hesitant, in case I ever want to put a ray in that tank.

good price if you wan't it then i'd say get it they just do't have that much color plus they eat a ton of vegies

Be careful of overcrowding. I want to emphasize...they get BIG. With all of the other fish you mentioned, it might get a bit tight.
