Has anybody here kept or known of a Cobia in captivity? These seem like they'd be awesome to keep, and everything I've found has lead me to believe they would do well in freshwater, as they are commonly farmed around the world in freshwater. In theory they should be available in large quantities for low prices from the farms in the US that hold the broodstock and breed for the farms to grow out and sell.
 
Never seen one in freshwater, but seen them in salt with similar sized fish (black tip reef sharks etc)
They prefer a high protein diet and a lot of swimming space
