Do u know if they are hard to find?

 

[Oddball]

Not impossible to find but, harder to find than the others. Can be up there in price. Occassionally found for as little as $80US to as high as $200US over the last few years.

What's the temperment of this fish? Max size and water parameters requirement? I saw one of these locally and was thinking of picking it up. Now if I could remember which LFS I saw it is another story.

They seem to be very hard to find. I know a few MFK members are keeping them.

I believe that neoprodigy has some....

Cool scat, I didn't know there were freshwater scats (and yes I know people keep S. argus and others in fresh). Would be cool to find one.
