Does anybody keep these?
What does a Chav and a Slinky have in common?

They are both great fun to watch fall down stairs.

They are quite hardy, if somewhat aggressive.

I think there's a CotM on them in this site.

I have a 7 inch Mystus leucophasis in a 90 gallon tank with some synos and denisoni barbs. I do not find the fish particularly aggressive. The Mystus is reclusive like the synos but does come out at feeding time. It is an attractive fish worth owning.
