Love the 2nd pic w/ the fire eel sneaking in for a cam shot :D Last shot.. WOW That's a huge royal. How big was he when you got him? Blue eyes looking great as well, never seen them around here.

Great !! Was under the impression they were impossible to get, due to a destruction of their very restricted habitat in Colombia....

thanks bros :)

The fish are actually P. cochliodon instead of suttoni. Suttoni hasnt been sold much and looks different.
I read different things about the availability. Most of the time people say they are banned and nearly extinct but a while back it was said some smaller specimens were sold in germany. Dont know what is true atm but i do know they are pretty rare and not easy to find.

The royal on last pic is 45cm and the blue eye 25cm.
