In the USA you may want to join the American Live Bearers Association as at least one of their members (Bill Allen) had access to belonesox as of last October.

Leopard Ctenopoma definatly...they are cool as hell and I have yet to see one that would eat anything but live.

I feed my 1" ctenopoma flakes!

I never knew they were so rare... here in toronto they pop up at least 2-3x per year @ anywhere from $10-40 ea.

this is what you want, if i could get some of these i would in a heartbeat.
youd need to go for the 30g though.

Have you looked into any of the dwarf Crenicichla yet? A pair would be wicked in a tank of that size. They are active, and definately predatory, plus could live in there for life...

Crenicichla regani
Crenicichla compressiceps
Crenicichla notophthalmus

Just to name a few...

What's the smallest tank size required for a dwarf Crenicichla?

 

[Peanut_Power]

30 gal, might be able to put a pair in that size, as there are several dimension for a 30gal...30gal long would work best. Easier to keep a pair in a 50gal though. . They stay small though, so 30gal for life is very doable!
