15" AFRICAN TIGER FISH (Hydrocynus Vittatus) | 91748, CA | Pick Up Only

It did what's in its sport fishing nature and went ape **** when it was fished out of the 500g and during transport (aka jumped). Only while bagged did we figure out that once they are turned upside down, they go into a hypnotic state which makes them easier to handle especially at this size. In addition while in quarantine, a little bastard albino giant gourami nibbled at his fins...That gourami was promptly removed and is now dead. So other than a few scales and tattered fins which is an easy recovery the fish, it is looking as it should.
Would love to see another African Tiger fish, Goliath or Vittatus at this size for comparison and/or reference.
(Edited: just noticed that what might be making you think that is the angle of the shot.. the pics are not a straight side shot.. it is an angled shot of the fish swimming and turning which is probably why the body lines look tapering..also it is being quarantined in a 100g corner curved tank which might cause distortion.)
I can assure you this fish looks SIIIIICK.
Here is mine for comparison mine is at least 15"

Hey guys, So far there are two solid offers in the $300 range and I won't be home until after 9pm.. A local mfk'er has first right of refusal. I just want to keep this fair. I will show my pm's and offers to validate my statements.
Thanks, That's a clean looking fish! Mine looked that way until it went ape ****. Now it looks like it went through a battle.
Please note: Auction styles sales threads are not permitted. Per your posts, you have received offers matching your original request, so I assume this fish to be sold. Please repost if the sale falls through.
