"Try to get the picture. This is the most aggressive fish in my country, it bites what ever is introduced in the aquarium including siphon hoses , 2 workers in Japan got injured ( bitten ) just taking them out of the bags , it sits there looking at you like a guard dog and when you get near the aquarium it opens its gills like a betta fighting fish and then strikes , We have to put 15 kilos ( 30 puonds ) of weight on the aquarium covers so they don’t wind up on the floor. We have them up to 70 cm. long which is around 8 to 12 pounds of pure muscle and teeth. They are the pitbulls of fish. I have never seen something so aggressive and bad tempered !

Check around. I think there is only 1 true hoplias aimaras in the states which was 1 of a batch I sent to Japan that was reshipped to the usa ( that one must of cost the guy in the states around $5000 minimum ). This is not hoplias macrofthalmus, in its genes it has the ability to grow up to 30 pounds in weight. "

i saw this on pfury, and glad to see some up close pics. this fish is crazy, and i would love to see if anyone is willing to order one . . . that would be baller.

can you even keep them in a glass tank? doesnt seem like it would be safe.

yeah you can .. just make sure the lid is very very secure. Ive seen those bad boys jump and they rival arowanas... very good jumpers.

[neoprodigy]

that is MONSTER for sure.... tempting...... but i hate wolves....

[Ripdevil]

redtrailfool - you have seen this fish in person? seems like they are extremely rare. i was just thinking it would break glass unless it was really thick, since it seems to strick at anything that moves . . .but what do i know

[Taz2478]

thats crazy. But if I wanted to stunt super hard, Id do a tank in a truck or car with that mug in it.
