Anyone ever have one? I've been looking at one at a store around here and not sure if I should take it or not. Liveaquaria says they're difficult to keep..
If you're talking about Chilomycterus schoepfi...I don't consider it a difficult fish. Based solely on the fact that I had two in a typical 55 gallon tank back in the early nineties. Think dead coral skeletons, dolomite substrate, undergravel filter, T12 fluorescent bulbs, bio-wheel filters, ect. If I remember correctly they were housed with damsels, clowns and possibly a wrasse. There was also a long spine urchin or two and possibly some astrea snails. I don't think they ever bothered the other fish and were content eating pelleted food as well as freeze dried krill. That fish definitely brings me back to the old days!
Burrfish?
