Unfortunately, yeah. That species is very common in aquarist shops, and cheap, only around £3-4 each. I doubt most live very long as they are not suited at all to most people's aquariums. There is a few completely aquatic freshwater species available, much less frequently, but that isn't one of them. They need about 50/50 land and water, and brackish water. I've known people to add them to their community tank, completely unsuited.
