• Compatibility: Only compatible with very large, fast-swimming pelagic species in extremely large, specialized exhibits. Not suitable for mixed reef or community tanks.
• Special requirements: Requires vast open swimming space, high water quality, strong filtration, and a constant supply of live or fresh frozen prey. Extremely challenging to maintain in captivity due to its active, schooling, and migratory nature.
