Not easy to breed as they would rather fight to the death than mate. And no
It's amazing how easy maintenance is. If done regularly and thoroughly

+1 to Bertie's comments.

Many folks marvel that they manage it at all in the wild - they are the junk-yard dogs of the fish world.

One of my Fahakas was the only fish I have ever kept of which I was physically afraid.

Thx to Bertie & RTR , I am afraid if I bought fahaka is the result of crossbreeding. Is it possible?
