Choose tankmates wisely because
this fish can develop a nasty attitude as it gets older. Tankmates might
be "seen" as meals. It is the "King of the Aquarium". The fossil records
indicate this fish has been around for many years, dating back to prehistoric
ages. Like the shark or alligator it's characteristics have not changed
much, indicating that this is a species that was near perfect. Own one
and you will see why.(Ed's Tank)
