In your nightmares.
Actually, they sell these flounder as FW and they are brackish water fish. They will not last long in a FW aquarium. A friend of mine had set up a sand tank with 5 in there and they all died within a few months. Unless you have a brackish tank setup I would not recommend them. They also need a sand substrate or will be unhappy.

It's a flounder, not a hillstream loach. And yes they are brackish. Very cool fish, I'd get one but they wouldn't last long with my columbian shark.
