So i see that alot of people on here have some monster Rhoms so i thought in order to look cool i must too.. I wanted a giant rhom for a while now and finally had the chance to pick one up for a steal..It pays to have good friends with nice fish too.. thanks tommy .. Ill get some new pictures up later.. hes currently more then 12 inches.. this is a pic from when the previous owner had him:

look great!...look even better with my monster rhom in there.
 
its funny.. this fish actually scares me.. im very uneasy about sticking my hands in his tank.. heres the pic from last night.. pardon the cloudyness i did a major filter change and water change because of my po4 reducer..

..

the pictures actually make him look tiny
 
haha, i've had a couple fish over the years that scared the hell outta me, i always dreaded cleaning their tanks cuz i just knew i couldn't trust them
 
ohh and before i get flamed.. the irritans or the brandtii arent in that tank anymore.. they have been moved to seperate 40 breeders.. they just hid a little too much in the plants and the rhom couldnt care less about beeing out in the open.. i also think that the plants in the tank are filling in well..
 
yeah, it's lookin good man... now you're reminding me that i need to rearrange my new planted tank, i got some new plants and i brought my new fish home last night and i told myself i'd do some scaping today
 
yeah, it's a possible compressus... frank over at opefe was hesitant to make a positive id on it because it is so thin right now, so we'll have to see. i posted a thread a few days ago of the one month turnaround of the extremely thin rhom that i picked up last month, so if i can get those same results with this one, i should know fairly soon.
 
i see.. i read that thread.. you never cease to amaze not only me but im sure all the other avid piranha forum members.. i have no more tank space to im done with collecting for the moment... im not like you and have 40000 tanks set up lol..
