I have looked at these fish and read they are hard to keep because they go through a change and was wondering if they really are hard to keep or if anyone here has kept one. My lfs has one in his main tank and it is so cool looking.

Not sure about the difficulties in keeping them but I know they get to 3 feet in length so your going to need a Huge tank
