It's a beautiful fish. Just make sure you check local regs, they are threatened in many areas.
 
I have a few in a tank at work and they eat my "homegrown" frozen zooplankton mix, bloodworms, mysis, and omega 1 flakes. Just keep that water clean and a good current going. Make sure they get enough food, because darters are some of the few fish I've seen starve over a short period of time-they seem to burn up calories quicker than most fish.
