not to kill the buzz about this wicked fish.............but has anyone had one long-term? I have owned many and have imported them..........as they come from deep cooler waters I have never had luck with them. When I say long-term I am meaning more than one year. I won't be buying them anymore despite their beauty.

I know 2 people that have had them long term. One had it for 3 years the other for 2. They both jumped because of uncovered tanks.
