I’ve got a cycled IM 10 gal tank ready for livestock now that I’d like to dedicate to the Basslet if I do decide to get one. Any information, pointers, or guidance on this fish would be greatly appreciated!

Personally for a 10g if i was willing to spend on very pretty live stock i would probably do a helfrichi fire fish and a colorful goby species like a yasha with pistol shrimp. Save the rest of the $600 for corals
My Swiss is my favorite fish, bright orange and purple , beautiful fish. I’ve had mine about five years.Their price is their collection depth. All deep water fish get a pretty hefty price tag.
Acclimating and shipping issues are what make it an expert fish from my understanding.
Not quite the same but a swiss swales is also a very pretty fish at a fraction of the cost.
I wouldn’t keep in less than 30 gals, room to grow and less water quality issues. They’re fairly hardy fish if fed properly. But for that price, I could find better stuff for my tank. Wait until they reach $250-300, if not no big loss. I’m a cheapo, I never pay more than $150 for anything.I’ve been wanting a Candy Basslet for a while now and I’d like to hear some insight from others who have owned one or a similar species. Is it worth the price? I’ve thought about pulling the trigger here recently since Liveaquaria has a couple on Diver’s Den.
