Aquarium Information

• Care level: advanced
• Temperament: aggressive
• Diet: carnivore
• Minimum tank size: 500_gallons
• Compatibility: Not suitable for community tanks with smaller fish. Can be kept with other large, aggressive fish of similar size, but individual temperament varies. Best kept singly or in very large, species-specific setups.
• Special requirements: Requires a very large aquarium with ample hiding places (caves, rockwork). Excellent filtration is essential due to their large size and messy eating habits. A varied diet of high-quality meaty foods is crucial. Can be prone to stress in inadequate environments.
