Im just interested in seeing some pictures.

Ive heard in the past that a few people had them.

Just interested to see the proof of this. Awesome fish - love the high red.
 
They probably left this site because to many people were trying to hack is account, find his location and steal them lol.

True, if you go back and read old fogo posts there are a couple people talking about a member (who seemed to be USA based) that had one.

No known fogos in captivity. Last known died in Tsunami in Japan.

Thats really sad. Too bad someone cant get a group of five and set them up in a pool in FL or something. Make bank.

Oh well.
 
Anyone know of a thread or pictures of any in captivity?

Id even be interested to see that tank - some of the japanese owners?
 
Does anyone know details of how they were acquired?

This whole situation with the fogo past and present is interesting to me.

Im sure it is interesting to all of us.

There is no confirmation of any, even the ones in Japan, they did not grow big enough for positive identification.

Why am I not surprised that Wes chimes in on this one...he must have a master plan to acquire some fish for me. :grinyes:
