nice fish :)
small tank, im guessing quarantine tank?
those are all very nice fish though, I like!

[Oliphant]

nice Stan. Were do you get your cats from?

[flamenco-t]

Yes QT tank (120). They'll be going into the 500 gallon

They're caught in brazil, since the export ban from brazil, these guys have not been in the hobby for about 3 years. The last time they were imported in 3 years ago, they came at 1".

I got them from a friend in Chicago, a steal at 600 for both..

wow
all those fish are beautiful :)
I would love to see more pics!
your big tank looks pretty cool in the few youve got posted

Great looking cats, you expecting them to get any larger? They kind of look like the Flathead cats you see in the states.
