Nice pickups! 3 great fish. I have an Argentea in my 125. He is the dominant fish in the tank (check stocklist in sig). The only fish bigger is the pike. I hope the mix continues to work as the other fish get bigger.

Here he is:

nice argentae, how big is it? as far as where he got this one, he had two and kept the smaller one. if memory serves this is a conkel fish, not sure where he got it though. would be kinda cool if it did come from you. i am really enjoying it wherever it cam from.

Thanks. He is around 10 inches. I have had him for a tad over a year.

those are some great argentea's you guys. So it even dominates the jag and festae?

Yes. The Jag is around 6 inches and pretty passive. The Festae is a 5" female who only shows little aggression towards my snook.
 
Hey Salty, Yeah that is the one I got from Modest Man. They are looking good.
 
Ha. Neato. How big is it? I have an argentea from the same stock (Conkel) that's now about 7". Mine was about an inch bigger than that one when I sent it out (3 vs 2").
