Gill Posted March 3, 2011 Share Posted March 3, 2011 I wouldn't do it if I were you, heck I wouldn't do it either LOL. I think fish usually jump when they are getting picked on, at least that has been my experience. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rubberduck9 Posted March 3, 2011 Share Posted March 3, 2011 I have one! Great fish Frank! You have plenty of places for it to make a burrow and escape to so im sure it will be fine. I have had mine for almost a year I think. Getting a pair will give them a better chance. You should check out the story on how these fish are cought. Pretty cool if ya ask me. They come from about 200 feet down. They are decompressed in small netts over a 3 day period. Its crazy to think these little beauties take 3 days to bring them to the surface. Thats why they fetch such a large dolar. You know how hard it is to catch a fish in our tanks let alone 200 ft down. lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gill Posted March 3, 2011 Share Posted March 3, 2011 That is a good point rubberduck9 made about your tank having plenty of hiding places. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stylaster Posted March 4, 2011 Share Posted March 4, 2011 I've had the purple ones and they have never jumped out, but they are pretty shy and will be bullied by more active fish. Just have to make sure they can get food to when it comes to feeding time. With how your rock work is setup, they shouldnt have any problems Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
