Are Archer fish Monster Fish?

[ferco]

Yea well was just wondering if I've ever qualified as a Monster Fish Keeper? There the closes thing I've had to a monster- except a huge pleco! lol
Do you guys consider Archers Monster fish? They're not exactly the average fish- though I did get mine from Dobbies garden centre...
But they are so cool!!!

What you reckon

i dig 'em.... some are pretty big man... and they are great predatory fish. I say yes....

It's a monster if you want it to be, it's all in the eye of the keeper. I would say they qualify. They grow fairly large, dispatch prey by spitting at it and are certainly oddball (and oddballs are typically monsters). When I start a brackish tank large enough I will definantly be looking into them.

Do they are awesome- had some a bit ago- yea apparently they grow quite big- watching them hunting crickets is awesome! they also jump for them.
So cool- I have been a MFK!! woohoo lol
