Bill,
The hardest thing is probably getting hold of them in good condition, or getting the eggs.
Hatching and rearing are not difficult per se, but it takes a lot of time and effort.
My adults are in a 75gallon, and there are now 8 in there that I can count (but they do hide well).
All my babies are now gone, but even if i had some left I would not ship to the US. Eggs are a different matter though, and may look into this at a later date when mine (fingers crossed) breed.
I know Lefty (from here) has raised some before and he would be the best to advise on availablity/conditions in the US.
