![]() From what I have read you may have your work cut out for you. They are apparently very difficult to keep..Soaking food in garlic may help...good luck

![]() I've maintained a tank that has a batfish...now that he's eating it's a great fish (I've named him Franklin) top to bottom he's about 13 inches. Not a word of a lie. He's in a 450 gallon tank built into a bar in a pool room

![]() a 95 is waaaaaaaaay to small. I'm not trying to rain on your parade, but you will not be able to keep this fish unless you can get a HUGE tank...trust me. Take it back and get a credit
