Beautiful fish if ya can keep it from stressing out.
They seem to break out in ich if you look at them funny.

But as always if you consider getting one, do your best to find one that's feeding and in real good shape with good solid color to it ( @ the LFS )
Then make sure water parametes are in good shape.

And then STILL hold your breath, cause it just might get ich even if you've done every thing right in your tank ,

if this fish gets stressed , you can rest assure it will fall victem to ich and most perish after they have a really bad break out of it.
( they will alot of times go thrue "no ich seen" to ich all over it' then looking good the next day , then the next day sleeping in the sand.)
But get a nice specimen and offer it good foods and give it pleanty of hiding places and NO more agressive fish that will pester it to death.
