EVERYONE SHOULD GET A PAYARA!!

[STONEDFISH]

If I am lucky enough to grow this guy out to 12" (I had 2 but my ornate poly ate one) It will be worth the money I paid.

Payaras are cool, but they don't do so well in aquariums.

 

[JD7.62]

That is not true. The only payara that gets 3'+ is the armatus. The red-tails would get about 18" and scombs get about 12". The latter fish is the one that is hard to keep in the aquarium, but armatus and red-tails are very robust and hardy fish!

 

[vamptrev]

yo JD what is a latter fish?

 

[Nabbig2]

Hehe, I'd love to. Only one problem; I don't have a tank anywhere near the size that a payara needs.
