That's so weird that they woud have those. LOL I'd say go for it if it would be the only fish in the tank.

Just refrain from urinating in your tank. Richard (brooklamprey) on AP has a thread dedicated to a tank he's building for candiru.

what sp is it. Candiru are an awesome fish and CAN be kept with other fish.

 

[wild caught]

eee! id get it, but keep your dick away from it.

 

[Lil_Stinker]

Not my cup of tea. I wouldn't get it. But that's not to say it wouldnt be interesting to keep for someone interested in them.

 

[skinless]

not a good fish to flush. just in case.

 

[Jeox]

Interesting replies.. .

What do you even feed these guys?

It depends on the species... I kept seven Tridensilimis brevis some time ago, and they used to eat everything, especially brine shrimp, but even finely crushed flake food. Oh, this species is NOT an obligate parasite, BTW.

Best regards.
