Info on Boulengerella maculata

[joel]

I was thinking about getting a few maculata when i set my 150g back up. I've done some research on them already. Anyone have experience with them? Do they do well with other fish in the tank(mostly ca/sa cichlids)?
will they eat pellets and other non live foods?

Never kept one my self but would like to

They can do fine with other fish as long as there not to aggressive they can be gotten off of live food but it may take some time its hard to get any of these fish onto pellets but can be done

Keep them in schools of atleast 5 I have a buddy that has them with 5 Red Tail Cudas and 5 Hujeta Gars-absolutely stunning tank!!!

they dont move much and a school would pretty much sit there.
