Golds in Calgary has had them in before, special order. Please tell me you are aware they are a deep water animal that are very sensitive to light, and need to be kept in a species specific tank design.

Yes I do know that they need a chiller, species olny tank, dimmed light and food requirements. I thinking about breeding them soon. It would be neat because olny three aquariums or reasearchers in the world. And also this is not an impulse buy I research all the fish I have before buying them.

Talking not great choice...>????
Although I admire your selection of animals with the nautilus which is extremely interesting animal......I have heard that marine biologists have hard time keeping this animal ALIVE
in captivity for any good length of time.....It is an animal that should not even be available
to the hobby possibly....

Something for you to consider..even though you have researched.....if the marine
biologists cannot keep them alive...what are your chances realistically?


best of luck either way
