On the Rio Araguaia, I wish...
Okay this is going to be my new update thread. I've finally got the collection close to back up to par. Here are a few pics of the current stock from the 240 and the growouts which include 5 Planiceps and 1 Piraiba! Also there will be a new pond contruction thread starting in a couple weeks...it's going to be Monster :) so stay tuned!

Now on with the pics!

Looking Good, Glad to see the collectin is growing! Those little Planiceps will pound on feeders and grow real quick. No Fila pic?
 
baby planiceps are some of the most beautiful fish out there imo, thanks for sharing

The planiceps are already eating feeder guppies and frozen blood worms. I know they will start putting on the size quickly, previously my planiceps put on about 3" a month up until 30". I tried to get some decent pics of the Fila but it was swimming incessantly and I didn't get any pictures worth posting. I will try again tomorrow because all I got tonight were silver blurs lol. Thanks again for the fish bro.
 
Thats a great shot. IF, and I know its a big IF, you can take a similar shot every few weeks, it would make a nice progression slide show. Specially since those Pectoral fins will change as they grow.

Yeah there will be growth progression pics updated frequently of the planiceps and piraiba along with approx sizes for sure.

Right now I'd say 2" on all of them but that will change by next week ;)
