Being a genuine parasite, how are you going to keep it alive?

Brooklamprey's comment in Cat-eLog might be comforting:
These fish have been observed feeding on dead fish and fillet as well as frozen thawed fish.
But I guess they won't be a great choice for the community tank.
P. nemurus is also the topic of this thread at MFK.
