not being an arse but the reason they are rare is mainly due to over collection for the pet trade as fly rivers are australian not chinese

.

Luckily export has been banned and they are now under cities

Although a beatiful species i dont believs they should be kept in captivity other than in zoos realy as they grow incredibly large.
