They need very clean, brackish water. Have very small appetite too...and only accept live food such as live blood worms and brine shrimps...

good luck*

Thank yu, don't think I'll go down that path. My LFS several years ago had an enormous one in with a Pacu, found that quite interesting....
 
I could not resist. I picked one up today at the LFS. It is a very scrawny 8".
I have it currently in my 10gallon quarentine tank. Appetite is certainly good on it, as it just ate a cube of frozen blood worms and two slices of beef heart.

I saw one at petsmart one time, they looked cool, I was going to buy one. Good thing I didnt, I didnt know they need bracksih water
 
very cool fish, i had one in a fresh water tank for over a year with no problems.
From what I’ve been told they can be kept in fresh water if they are acclimated to it very slowly. Also the only thing he would eat was shrimp pellets.
 
mine is in fresh water with a little aquarium salt, and it eats frozen brine shrimp and flakes
 
Mine eats anything that makes it's way in front of it's mouth.
It likes sinking pellets, alge waffers and any flake food that has sunk to the bottom.
This fish is nearly blind and anything you can do to make sure he gets food will help him out.
