Yes I do know that they need a chiller, species olny tank, dimmed light and food requirements. I thinking about breeding them soon. It would be neat because olny three aquariums or reasearchers in the world. And also this is not an impulse buy I research all the fish I have before buying them.

Does anybody know the price of ocean citys nautilus and golds nautilus?

[sohal tang]

Although I admire your selection of animals with the nautilus which is extremely interesting animal......I have heard that marine biologists have hard time keeping this animal ALIVE
in captivity for any good length of time.....It is an animal that should not even be available
to the hobby possibly....

Something for you to consider..even though you have researched.....if the marine
biologists cannot keep them alive...what are your chances realistically?


best of luck either way

So your saying roughly the cost of a nautilus is the cost of a sohal tang.

I wish I did live in hawaii, although I did go for two weeks on the big island in kona. Maybe one day soon Why, offering me a house LOL.

No, I think he means that he agrees with Sohal Tang's (the user) post warning you that since marine biologists have a hard time keeping nautilii alive, that it might be a species best left in the ocean.
