I seen these guys for sale at petsmart the other day. I think they would make a good add to my 125 brackish set-up. I have a few archers,2 scats,1 white tip shark cat, and a lot of baby mollies. There is not a lot of info on these fish that i can find,like do the need to be in schools? how hardy or they? do they just eat what ever is left over, or do they need any special foods/treatment?
Also,all the brackish water fish i got i got from petco, they have a brackish set-up. These or in freshwater,how hard is it to aclumate to brackish. Do i just soke the bag in my tank and add a cup or so of brackish water to it over time, till the water in the bag is the same as my tank? Say like over a few hours or so?
Thanks for any info on this

They can be hard to start feeding, but if you get them to that stage your home and dry. They are sift feeders, found in river basins, like to be able to burrow now and again. Can always target feed to make sure too.

Do a search for these guys, I did an extensive write-up quite some time ago.
