I saw a few photos in one of my fish books, and wanted to get one when i was first setting up my 55, but no lfs could get one. I found them for five bucks in tdf. I know they are closely related to amazon leaf fish, and they have a giant strechable mouth that can such fish in. Could you help be with more info? I will get this along with a small aro, angelicus botia, 10" gacillus pictus, 6" acara, 2 small blood parrots and a tire track eel

Do you have any Petsmarts in your area? Usually I wouldn't buy there but they are the only ones that I've seen around that have any. Right now they have a tank full at $8.

I have one. How big are the aro and eel as usually Ctenopoma are sold at around 1 1/2 - 2" in size and might become lunch.

The tire track eel is 5" on arrival. The arowana is from TFD and they just have marked as SMALL, so I imagine just a few weeks after obsorbsion of there egg sacks. If it is to small for the tank then I can put in into a 45L for growout (same gos for the leopard). In the summer there will be 180 if i can get a good deal, a 125 if i can't get a 180matty said:
