Finally! I got a Payara:)

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
The growth rate doesn't seem right either. 15 inches in a year and a half? A few members grew theirs to just about that in a matter of months.

yes...I found that rather strange, my armatus has shot from 3" to 13 or so in just a few months. The tail ect in the pic stumps me to believe it is an armatus though...dunno, guess a better pic will tell 4 sure.

Tats fins do turn whitish when frayed.

I was meaning the black banding...if you look at the thickness of the black on the tail of armatus compared to tats you will see what I meant...I may be wrong as I am no expert,but I was under the impression that tats have just a thin black edging if at all.
 
My Tats tails are front 1/2 red back 1/2 black.

I'de say just by looking at the eye.....Tat. It's dark. From the fish I have kept dark=Tat/Scomb Light=Rhaph/Armatus.

I stare at a tank with 2 tats and 1 armatus in it every night. That's a Tat.

I have never seen an Armatus with zero white in either tail or fin.

Geeez. Owned these things for a while now and I still get excited...LOL
 
5 bux on Tat........

Anyone else in?

look at 3rd pic down...maybe just me but the reflection of the tail looks like white edging ect...not fighting the fact, just looks that way to me.
