Yea I was ecstatic when I saw them in the LFS yesterday. Ive been waiting so long for these guys. They have two left, and considering that I might never see tats in the LFS again I gotta go back, and get me one more. The last one is up for grabs haha

6" at $40.00 and it might even be an Armatus, They say it's an Orange Tail which I've been told is either a Tat or Armatus.
Can I ask a question. Why are you guys so interested in getting payara into non-live food? I noticed most americans keepers likes to do that. Any particular reasons?

Mostly for health reasons. I don't know about over there, but here our store bought feeders are terrible. They are kept in horrible conditions, are usually diseased, and usually die shortly after purchase. Most die before they are quarantined for long enough. I don't feel like setting up a breeding project for feeders either. I also like that I can feed the whole tank with one kind of food at a time.
He nailed it,and also it's cheaper and less of a hassle than running back and forth for feeder fish.In the warmer months I use minnows,which fish do you have as feeders over there besides goldfish?frnchjeep;4326732; said:

Wow what a steal. I paid $59.99 for mine. He was nailing the rosies they were feeding him at the LFS. Im excited that I was able to get my hands on one of these.
