wow beautiful and cute lol
 
nice lil guy fgw! its only a matter of time before he's a big giant goofball.

my only tip to anyone, leichardti are spazmatic fish as they get bigger, especially during feeding time. when they dart, they don't stop til they hit something. as u can see in my pics i removed almost all decor because he bumped into all the driftwood i had. bigger tanks will always be better
 
id like too get 1 but im going arowana/bichir crazy LOL i got like 5 arowanas,8 bichirs HAHA so im broke if i got money im definetly buying a lei

How big is your tank, E? He was darting for shrimps the other day and did not stop until he bumped into my finger. He took a bite at my finger. There was no damage done but those teeth are sharp like needles.:D
 
LOL thats cute lol i remember i stuck my hand in my african arows mouth O_O i couldnt see the water was blurry on top LOL im like whats this slimy thing LOL
 
he's in my 150gal, 6ftx20"widex24"tall. i wanna toss him in my 400gal but i like him being solo as a prize style setup. so i may grab him a 180 or 210 or 240 here in the future.

i was at 5 aros for a while, one silver jumped ship a year ago and i never tried replacing him. all my silvers are like 28 inches so adding a new one is difficult.
 
I just got one of those new babies floating around
so far he has tank mates
are any of you having luck with long term tank mates
