I've read a lot on them, always wanted to keep one. Was up at the LA wholesalers and found a small cute guy, picked him up-by the time I got home he was dead :( so no in -tank info. They do get big, they prefer a decent amount of sandbed, and expect them to eat just like a mandarin dragonet-basically nothing you put in the tank, just the livestuff already in there.

Yeah, that's always a deterrant for me getting stuff... It could just be due to their feeding requirements (like dragonnets)

I think that dragonnets are/was listed on dfs as "expert only".

I always thought that was funny, as dragonets require no special care-just a suitable setup. Mine are both in 30 gallon tanks, and have been in their respective tanks for a year or so. I don't take care of them at ALL. Just ignore them and let them do their thing.

Yeah they are I don't think I'd have any problem what so ever with enough food for them just looking for experiences with them
