Believe it not this fish once had quite a drastic PLJ. Now look at it, it's hardly noticeable. http://www.youtube.com/user/uarujoey?feature=mhsn#p/c/D70CFC01BBA204A4/0/B-4UV6QSndQ

For a good example of what these two are talking about look at the RTG that arowanaclub.ca forum member Joey has. When I sold him that fish I did so because of the PLJ. At the time the fish was young, I new it was going to be a stunner, but I wasn't sure how the jaw would turn out. As I thought...

Same, I'm picky. I don't think the farms intend on breeding arowana with PLJ. I think the goal is to breed a fish that has perfect color, shape, scale structure, fin structure, and overall with no defects. Yet the battle for one good trait, may bring out a bad one from time to time. Often you...

Thanks Theo. That's great info. I was worried about where to surf and I figured I might spend a couple days hiking/camping up the coast. Finding the hidden points and coves. However now I have some more specific leads on where to go. I wear a wetsuit year round here anyways, our water is quite...

Hey Guys, It looks like my plans to go on a surf trip down south might be a bust (waited on people to confirm and then flights went through the roof). So I was searching out some other trips to go on, and found some very cheap flights to BC. So I was thinking I could go there and spend...

Oliver had some not too long ago. Great fish, one of the very few serrasalmus that will school in an aquarium.

I have kept 2 vittatus and 2 goliath with very little success. They are only really aggressive towards other torpedo shaped fish, I often find they are the ones to get beaten up or killed. They spook easy and often die from either knocking themselves about too much or from jumping out. They...

Good luck man! My two big ones used to go ate it all the time, but I never got anything out of it. Hopefully it works out for you!

The aimara is looking great! Once again, glad you are happy with him!

Hey, I need to sell my aimara. I have no interest in committing another big tank to a solo predatory fish. I have had this guy for a year now. I got him at 5-6" and now he's about 10-11". I have grown him out pretty slow so that I wouldn't wash out his colour. He could probably be close to...

Here's what I have that I would like to move: 12" - Indo dat - $300 - Very stable 6" - Indo dat - $80 - Very stable 1.1 pair of Hoplarchus Psittacus. Bonded pair, bred for me in the past. Male is 12" and perfect, female is 8"-9" and takes the typical beatings from the male, but is other...

A lot of "high shine" silver arowana grow up looking normal for quite some time. Generally they start off looking just like a nice normal arowana, usually a little bit lighter in colour, and better shine than a normal arowana and then once they reach maturity they go white. It wouldn't be all of...

What is crazy about the xingus is the fact that this ray hasn't even met it's full potential. Great looking ray, looking forward to seeing more pictures

Brazil is probably one of safer countries to travel to in South America. Other than petty crime, cocaine trade and the odd political riot (which most CA/SA countries are known for) it's safer than Columbia, Bolivia, Peru, etc. However bringing fish out of there would be tough. Quite a few of...

Both fish are gorgeous in their own way. Good luck with them! Keep us updated!

Thanks! I actually do get the comments about the dats. I find they clash a bit with the Hoplarchus and red head severum. I orginally wanted to kept the dats with the barca, but they fought too much. It wasn't a battle I wanted to risk. I think when I can move the Hoplarchus and severum into...

Thanks guys I appreciate the comments! Mike - The driftwood just floats like that. I pick all my driftwood up off the beach. Just the stuff that has been stripped by the wind and surf and bleached by the sun. PS - Do you recognize one of the dats in there?

Thanks guys! It once was only pikes, geos, satanoperca and panda uaru. To accommodate so many shy fish I had way more drift wood as decor. Lot's of floating stumps with long roots hanging off of them, but the plecos I had destroyed them and made a mess of the tank so I cut it back a lot. I...

I was of course avoiding studying tonight. So I took some pictures! Red Hook Myleus – Extremely hard fish to photograph Geophagus Dicrozoster Indo dat Trachycorsytes 240 FTS Stock list is as follows: - 1.1 Hoplarchus Psittacus - 3 x Indo Dats - 5 x Red Hooked...

Yeah P14's are supposed to max out around 20", as do cf. Hystrix, and scobina are even smaller. I think all three of those species could be happy in a 360 gallon for life. Boesmani are also supposed to stay small, but not enough is known about them to make an accurate judgement. Plus regardless...
