Great build, how much silicone did you use to stick the styrofoam to the glass and did you ever have any problems with flotation?

I would def go for mahseer. Don't know how cold it gets there, but there is a guy on here that has some in a pond and I think he lives in Cal. Or also maybe some mosquito fish as fodder and also maybe a lone muskee or bowfin. Oh yeah, and then of course the notorius elopichtys bambusa.

Hey Oddball It's (Paedocypris progenetica), right? First thought it was the sinarapan (Mistichthys luzonensis), but saw they have two fins in the dorsal area.

Hahahaha, you should see R.S.A's fish black list. http://www.monsterfishkeepers.com/forums/showthread.php?160768-South-Africa-Restricted-Species All indegenous fish are BL'ed aswell as pacu, snakehead, arapaima, piranhas, most of the fw rays, some peacock bass, all fw cructaceans (shrimp...

Would love to own a mahseer. Another beasty that is also really cool is the mangar (luciobarbus esocinus) and they look very simmilar to the mahseer. Somewhere on the net I've heard these guys are known for plucking birds from the surface and that dictators in their region used to feed them...

wow you're good oddball, http://www.ittiofauna.org/webmuseum/pesciossei/cypriniformes/cyprinidae/luciobarbus/luciobarbus_albanicus/index.htm

It's tomorrow already! :) Hey aussie, btw what was that fish eating?

Lost track of this thread with my cap running out n all. Hephaestus fuliginosus ?

Well the one in the back looks like Toxotes chatareus and the one in front I have no idea. Maybe Macquaria australasica?

Isn't that why the smaller fish are in their? To feed the pima? Mhmm... wonder if bighead carp would help clear green water?

Spot on aussie, quite rare in the trade these guys.

Nope their from Asia. Only two species in this guy's genus.

Haha lol ok, here's one from South America.

Me too Aussie, would love to catch one though. I actually stumbled upon that pic while looking at some different aussie cats. I really like their profile, they look a lot like my favorite fish, the paroon shark. I also found that a lot of aussie catfish are also brackish and sometimes marine...

Spot on Aussie, your'e turn.

Danube Roach (Rutilus virgo pigus) No come on guys. Try and get mine, you already know it's genus. It's also invasive in some parts of Asia.

Close, same genus. They are often used in fish farms and grow quite large, (the guy/girl in the pic was about 1meter long) up to about 40 and 50kg.

Close, if it wasn't for the dorsal fin they would look almost identical. Different genus though.
