Got a few more fish in today. Baby tig and and true pariaba cat. Tig is tiny but I really like the pattern and I believe will grow to look stunning. Fila is the one I'm most excited about right now he's about 5-6in and looks sharp. Only brachyplatystoma I need now is true vailantii. Just want to share a couple pics and will update once everyone is settled in.

Sweet! The piraiba looks just like my two from Peru I got from Mark Chen of Discus Origins. Is yours from him too?

Tig's too little to say anything about its pattern. In fact I think the pattern evolves so much, it's hard to say anything until they hit a foot or so. It had just gotten the stripes. Smaller tigs don't even have any stripes.

Yes came from discus origins. Really like him. Last night I put cut fish in for the capatretum and turned off light. I figure he wouldnt eat but he surprised me already taking food so soon. I had my choice between 5 tigs his size. Choose him because to me he had fewer of the little lines on him and color was a little darker vs the others almost pink with bars. I agree as they grow the pattern definitely gets more intense. Figured I would go again at these as of a month ago I let my 14in tig go. He was almost bullet proof hope I can get the same for the little guy.

Where is the lil' tig from and how much did you pay? Feel free to ignore.
 
Tig came from private seller here in north Georgia. 115 a piece. Also got my dorado cat through him as well a year ago.
Are the remaining 4 tigs available to anyone else but you at the same price? If so, I'd be interested. Again, feel free to ignore my poking.
