The fish is pretty inexpensive...around $20 in my area. The catch is...it's saltwater{As you know} so add that in if you don't already have a salt water set up. And salt water is not cheap. I had one in my salt water tank and it was a pretty low maintenance fish. And they don't get very big.

They do prefer live food..shrimp,black worms etc etc. But I never had a problem feeding mine pellets. It seemed to eat everything I gave it. He would even eat my tang's algae wafers.

No. I no longer have a salt water aquarium. Got rid of it when we moved several years ago.
