awesome looking chancho Mathew. Beast of a chancho. Seems like he had good growth the first year for you. What did you feed him? I just picked 4 up from COA. Excited to see if i get a beast like yours.

Just picked up 7 Chanchos myself from Dan 
They are in the 3-4.5 range. I was going to get some Flaveolus but decided on Chancho, because why not. Hopefully, I get a pair out of the 7. Mean little bastards these fish are lol.

Nice pick ups. I just got these Wednesday in the 3-3.5” range. Hungry lil guys but not aggressive yet.Just picked up 7 Chanchos myself from Dan
Haha yeah I got mine Wednesday as well. We were in sync with the fish craziness lol.
They do have a great personality! I would just say you may consider the 125 as a temp home because they will get 18” + and that’s the width of the (standard 125) aquarium , though, I’ve had mine for going on 3 years and he is 14” so you’d have some time. I think Andy Woods’ Chancho “Tank” is 16+ long.
Thanks so much! Honestly, I’ve tried to feed him a variety of foods but he will only eat Omega One sinking pellets and frozen bloodworms. He eats and eats and eats but it very particular. Congrats on your pick up, Post pictures when you get them!!
Thank you again ?
