Aquarium Information

• Care level: expert
• Temperament: aggressive

• Minimum tank size: 500 gallons
• Compatibility: Not suitable for typical community aquariums. Can be kept with other large, aggressive fish of similar size, but often best kept singly or in very large, species-specific displays.
• Special requirements: Requires a very large tank with ample rockwork for hiding and territory establishment. Excellent filtration is crucial due to their large size and messy eating habits.
