Is that okay in the rocks or should it be placed in the sandbed?

Fluxion,
I would keep an eye on that brain. It looks a little bleached out and appears that it was damaged at that area where the skeleton is getting exposed. Keep the water quality up and make sure to feed it enough.

Taks for the reply Genin. DO you think I should moe it down in the tank? it's about 2/3 of the way up in a 16" deep tank with a 96w compact flourescent.

i have aquick question about their growth...I got one off a friend, it is about 3inches across...with the right water parameters etc, what type of growth should I expect?

Here is a crazy yellow / neon green with purple rimmed sides

I picked this big boy up at a LFS for $60. It is easily the size of a muskmelon.
