thanks for the thoughts.....

i am not sure they are still protected as they are being breed in man made ponds in peru and germany...they seem to be fairly available now from some large internet suppliers.

the breeder /wholesaler who i got the fish from when they were about 16" is working with the LA Zoo on their new exhibit....and he mentioned the zoo as a possible home. he has supplied several nine foot gigas to the large public aquarium in chicago....he seems pretty knowlegable.....

they are magnificent creatures.........
