thanks! as you can see though, a 90 gallon is not big enough for 18 inch fish...

whats funny is years ago I had an 18 inch pacu and I sold him because he was too big (he had to be moved into a 65 and I could not keep the ammonia levels down with him + others in the tank).
I said, No More Giant Fish..the 4 foot tanks aren't big enough.....
and now, 10 years later, I have TWO..LOL
but they are my pets and I don't want to get rid of them to someone else who might kill them by not doing water changes or something even though they might have a bigger tank.
they may be cramped with me, but they will be healthy.

All i can say is i would rather be in your tank, then some who does not give the care.. yours look very healthy and happy.. and maybe someday you can get them bigger tank but for now .. they are awesome!!!

not sure on the scientific name... maybe Solea selheimi i'm not too sure, i've never found any information on them. Only seen 3 pics of them on mfk... bought mine as a freshwater asian sole, although i believe there are many.
