Monster Cichlids!!!!

[fitznacio]

since I am a fan of V. Argentea, I still find the sheer size impressive since you don't see too many pictures of the wild caught fish caught on rod & reel. You would think that they would be slightly smaller that the their tank raised brethen however this fish may be in a location were apparently food is abundant or the fish may be old.

Awesome pics of those monsters. Oh man, I wouldn't have any room left in my house (it would be all tanks) if I had access to that kind of fishing waters.
