Dude! Lovin the collection especially the Scherzeri and I like the Coal Grunter just because you don't see them often and they've got a unique look. Can I ask when did you get the Scherzeri and was it from Wes? I'm curious because I'd like to pic one up down the road and it would help knowing around what time he or who ever had them available.

Thanks man but it's actually S. kneeri and not scherzeri.I got it from Wes a few months ago and it is the closest I've been able to come to getting a chuatsi after years of searching for one....The grunter is a cool little fish that is almost constantly moving and is hard to photograph with my phone lol.

Really nice perches! I like them, they're very pretty. :)
Thanks Rob.The Chinese perch is really pretty when it has its dorsal spines up but it's hard to get a good shot.

I actually had thought my id was off after posting, saw that line running through the Sinerperca's eye and it reminded me interestingly enough of a Scherzeri body with some Chuatsi markings. Yeah the last time I had seen Chuatsi was 2 years ago I believe and both Jeff and Wes had them in stock. Perches are the fish I miss most from my old collection and I'm dying to get a Chuatsi, Scherzeri, Whiteheadi and probably now a Kneeri figured they'd make an awesome display along side some NTT and IT Dats. As for that Coal Grunter I'd keep an eye on him he might get aggressive on you and start messing with the others if he hasn't already. Again man nice collection keep us updated.
