I like how fish pronounciation is far different than it is in different countries. Pacu is Par-kuu in the vid. I say it Pah-Cu.

I just took the video, that was Ted talking in the vid.

I agree. But what's really shocking is that I can't believe you actually had respect for him to begin with. :eek:

So tell us Del. What do you do so special that makes you take care of arows the best?
 
Gee Del. Your poor arows looks awfully cramped in there.

You posted that pic back in 4/06. Your arow must be a lot bigger now.

Now tell us again how well you care for it in that cramped 180G of yours? My 250G is packed with fish but at least I have future plans lined up already. How about u?

I find you so hypocritical especially when you wrote this:

Osteoglossum bicirrhosum a.k.a silver arowana is the most common and inexpensive of all the arowana species, and yet is one of the largest growing up to 4 feet (3 being average) and in some extremely rare cases in the wild, grow almost 5FT IN LENGTH!!!! :WHOA:

Minimum tanks size for this fish (though very debatable) should be no less than 270 (6ftx3ftx2ft) gallons for a single arowana. For this fish to live comfortably, grow and live to its FULL potential however, A 478 gal (8ft x 4ft x2ft ) would be the ideal tank size for LIFE (this is of great debate as well).

Longevity:

The average lifespan of a silver arowana in captivity is between 15-20 years. However with optimal care throughout its whole life, this fish is said to up to 50 years (possibly more).


So let's see how long your arow will live. If it doesn't live to be 50 yrs old then how can you call yourself the best?

I also find it funny that you have ewurm's quote as your sig:

Never buy a fish with plans to donate it, you might not find any takers. When you buy a fish, you buy it for life.


Oh BTW I'm not angry now, I'm just enjoying myself by bashing you.
