How hardy are they? I know they are supposed to be a lot better than scombs, but do they require special added currents and all that? Also, can they take prepared foods rather than live?

Also, does anybody have pictures of a nice adult specimen? Most of the ones Ive seen look frail and sickly.
How fast do these guys grow as well?

I do know one thing.......If you're ordering online.....They don't seem to ship very well.
Any body here keeping a group of these things?
I have heard they do well in groups. Well I've also heard they attack eachother.
How many does everyone have and what exactly are you guys keeping them with?

Who did you order from? I am hoping to order redtails online, not scombs, since my area doesnt have them
I got mine from John at ECZS. I lost a few due to some dificulties at the airport. John came through though. He garenteed his fish and followed through. I HIGHLY recommend him if you are ordering online. He has all the vampires except Armatus.....Including a species that is currently unidentified. They are sold as yellow tail vampires. They carry some of the redtails traits as well as some of the Armatus's traits.
If you are into Vampires John is your man. Very few places that sell fish actually know the difference between all the Hydrolycus species. Not only does he know the difference but he also brings in stuff that no one can ID.
