just wondering if u had the chance to buy a bumblebee grouper for 400 bux would u buy it?
 
if i had the money i might. there an awsome fish. i would love to have one, not everone has one
 
If I were able to house him it would definately be an offer I would consider.
 
Yeah,

I probably would...
 
Definitely not, to keep one to full adulthood I would need a saltwater tank at least 30' long x20' wide x10' deep and be able to feed my 880 pound bumblbee at least 20 pounds of fish per day. Not going to happen anytime soon.

That fish could probably eat the guy in the background.
 
manny from the "wild boys" show on mtv wrestled one up to the surface. that knucklehead puts his hand in the fish's mouth and grabs it through the gills. some people fish for them this way. anyways, there is an advertisement by MFK in this month's TFH magazine in brian scott's top of the food chain section that labels it as a freshwater bumblebee grouper. to me it seems that it isnt a good idea to house one of these guys due to the size. do these fish migrate from fresh water or something?
 
As they get older they move to the outer reef edges.
