Biggest I've seen was 18" from user Wuchu w/his 27" Goliath, 2 armatus n Tat. There is a YouTube Vid



Tats are hard to come by, I believe the season is now for Tats

I think wat makes armatus interesting is it's character as u mentioned. Never shy bout approaching it's food. hv not kept other hydrolycus before, but seen other's vid and noticed that hydrolycus such as scombs are more hesistant about attacking.

Armatus always made 100m dash towards their food, and sometimes they knocks each other and got their mouth hooked to each other for a split of a second.

Aimara is also another crazy beast I am attracted to recently.

look at this image...you'll notice that not only do tats swim at a more angled position, their bellies are also deeper and rounder.

Thanks for the info.
I also noticed, big Tats have a rounder face, not as sharp as Armatus.
But Juv Tats and Arm look similar indeed.

also something i always noticed but couldn't quite express, thanks!
