Yes, This is a brackish fish and you must ensure that you a good supply of live food as they are carnivorous and will not survive on frozen foods alone.

Archers, Monos and scats can be good tankmates if your tank is big enough! all are brackish

Nice!
Got picture of the set-up?

I've kept them before too, caught them from the canel.
I feed them tubi.
The biggest I caught was abt 3 inch.

Very nice pets!

Cool!! Remember I used to catch them when I was young, but never really know how to keep them so always die in a short time. Hope you are successful with keeping them, then can teach me
