Anyone here keep one?? IMO this is a fish I must keep at some point in the hobby. It is absolutly stunning.
I realize they get rather large and need a rather large tank.

I am interested to know how they are getting along in your tanks. Pictures would also be excellent.

Rick J. who owns Canadian Marine Aquarium Supply hasone in his personal 360gal tank. It is a truly stunning fish.

Everything I've heard about these fish says they're extremely aggresive. One guy posted a thread somewhere about a sohal that killed everything in his tank in one afternoon. John at J&L says he has to move them around all the time, because if they get used to a tank being "home", they start taking out other fish.
I agree though, they are stunning fish and I hope to have a tank big enough one day to house one.

Im not aware of any problems rick has had with his fish, but then again im not at his house everyday. He tells me though that it is the "king" of the tank and all the other fish seem to accept that. Although in a 360gal reef there tends to be places to run :razz:
