I am looking for any information at all that anyone might have on Enneacampus ansorgii. It is a 6" pipefish from Africa that apparently lives in freshwater. The only information I have found on Google is either a) pictures of them, b) a very loose account on accidental breeding, c) very little info from Fishbase, or d) In a language that can't be translated. Has anyone tried keeping them? The only real husbandry data I seem to be able to find is that they need small live foods and are completely harmless (thus, defenseless).
I first saw one at a LFS in Maine (under the common name "ropefish"), but I hadn't been able to identify it till I was looking through an aquarium fish atlas today.
Here is a picture, FWIW: http://www.forumaqua.com/xoops/html/modules/xgallery/cache/albums/album35/aad.sized.jpg
