Yea I will hook you when I get home from work... Right now he is in the 180 with: Two Motoros, 4 lemon barbs that are growing too fast and 4 Red hooks. This week is big though I am moving my Korean Perch into the 180 today now that he is taking shrimp and later this week will be moving the two widebar dats into the 180 as well. Angie has a black aro she bought for my b day that will likely end up in there as well. I also have a cobra pike and 14" Jardini coming to me this week. The cobra will go in there and the jar will go into a 125 solo. I may move the barbs and red hooks into that tank with the Jar. They make feeding difficult because they have acquired a taste for shrimp and snatch the first ten pieces I throw in. The Tig I got was from Nishant and he had him handfeeding. I have gotten very close to him taking it from my hand but then the rays get a little close for my comfort. I will get you some pics when I get home in an hour or so...

No way I'd spend what he's asking for that fish, regardless of how nice it is. Especially not when you can get a blue faced abbarent bar Tig for about the same price.
