Nice pickup 
I used to have a Chaca bankanensis and a C. chaca..both were very cool cats that wouldnt mess with upper level fishes. keep an eye on your ph levels though if you do have other fish in the tank as chacas can flux the ph if you didnt already know...they use chemicals when feeding that will alter the ph very quickly...I never looked into it untill i lost a whole school of silver dollars in one evening. Also they love almond leaves in the tank...I had one large leaf in the front of the tank and he would sit under it and nab any fish that swam by...and also loved ghost shrimp.

That is absolutely awesome though. Good luck man
