I went to a friends to buy an orino pbass from him and he ended up having a bowfin which I have wanted for awhile now.:headbang2 I am pretty excited about getting it. He is about 9 inches and is swimming the tank constantly. I will look at the tank and he will swim right to the front. Pretty cool fish to own. I will be posting some pictures in a little bit.
 
ahem what were you saying about some pictures in a little bit? :D been like 4-5 hours

Sorry the pictures are a little blurry and apparently a little late hahaha. But hopefully I will have more soon.

Looks cool, haven't seen too many of these

He is awesome. I could not believe I talked the owner into selling him to me. He is not overly aggressive what so ever. I have 4-5 inch pbass in with him and he doesnt even look at him.
 
Keep that guy well-fed and he might not bite chunks out of your other fish... Nice acquisition, I want one, too.

Very nice!!! That must have been some smooth talking?

Lol it was more the money doing the talking and he had a bunch more awesome fish and I think he wanted more color. I just gave him a price and he said sure. The seller is a cool guy.
