My fish supplier told me they might be getting these at the end of this month. I was just curious if anybody knew much about them?

Their scientific name is Lates niloticus.

Moderator, please move thread in that case.

I just thought if I was going to be able to get them (from supplier) and offer them, I could post it here. Sorry about that :)

It's a nile perch, and you' need a small lake to keep one!

Okay,

So I'm guessing this might not be suitable for an aquarium, haha.

Thanks guys

depends on how dedicated you are. :D

if someone on this board can build a 10,000g tank for a giga, then a nile perch is no problem.
