I had a prolific breeding pair for a couple of years, but sold them. Do not know how they fared after that.

2 terrible specimens from Wai's Aquarium, they twitched and were not healthy. They ate mysis with no problems but died randomly within 2 weeks of each other. All other fish in system are FINE.

I bought mine from there as well and have had them for close to 7 months now - they have grown lots, look great and eat everything...

I wish I'd bought mine 7 months ago.
