Honestly the price is what was holding me back for so long, but its worth it. Definitely the coolest fish I have owned.
This fish has the exotic predatory look of most large characins, but unlike other characins they have the robust attitude and hold their ground like cichlids!
He is in a 125 for now. Like I said they are not skittish so I feel that unlike an ATF for example that darts across the tank at the lightest disturbance, the armatus could comfortably live in there until he is 12" or so.
