Thanks all.... you guys think I should go for this guy??? i kinda liked the size... have never seen tilapia b4... i have a 195 with Oscars, Pacu and Giant Gaurami... would he fit in there?...

No worries on the diet part i could treat him well only if i know he can be housed in the tank mentioned above... he is being kept in cheap dried prawns bits diet...

what you guys thinks....?

Thanks againg...
