They are kept in all kinds of water but come from SW & do best in marine.

They generally go by Chelonodon patoca, however I doubt this is their true ID (they don't like the original illustration of C. patoca at all). Probably they are truly C. laticeps, but you'll find more info when searching for C. patoca, because they are mostly called so.

Strong Brackish to marine.
