Aquarium Fish: Reconsidering the Lookdown (Selene vomer)
Owing to its distinctive shape, coloration, and behavior, the lookdown has the potential to become a popular aquarium fish. This unusual animal can be a fitting addition to many pelagic or sand flat exhibits.

Hopefully it will help you decide what to buy or not buy, or what to leave in or get out.
