Great fish, really hardy and playful. Never had any problems except the time he turned white. I suspect it was because the lights did not come on for a while, which caused the temperature to drop significantly. Other than that, it is a really fun fish to watch. He is the boss of my tank, simply because of his sheer size. This is NOT a fish for a small tank, I have him in a 1100 L tank and he seems to be happy, anything smaller would just mentally suffocate him if he got any bigger. He is about 20 cm nose to tip of tail.
