Hi:
check out Scott Michaels books both "reef fish vol 1" and "marine fish-a pocket guide"...he has a chapter and a page on livebearing brotulas.
He claims they are totally reclusive and will not be seen in a tank w/ any live rockwork. He also claims they are hardy, eat typical carnivores diet, shrimp, etc.
beside this, don't know for sure i've only seen them in stores
