Curator's Note

THIS ANIMAL IS FOR EXPERT-ONLY AQUARISTS

Guarantee Restriction:

All of our livestock has a guarantee to arrive alive. However for this species we cannot offer a guarantee beyond arrival for one or more reasons outlined below. Some species do not handle stress from environmental conditions well. These stresses can include poor water quality, harassment from tank mates or confined aquarium conditions. When stressed, these species can lose the ability to ward off infection and disease. Other species have such specialized feeding requirements that is difficult to recreate in an aquarium and may succumb to mal nutrition.
