I went to a lfs and walked passed and noticed something huge and red. I bent over and saw a huge female festae! She was housed with a 12" peacock bass and bullied it around. I should've got a FTS but I wasn't thinking lol. I would say she's atleast 10". I wished I had the tank space. For you festae fans out there, enjoy :)

Whities pets right? I was there last night and saw her. She came in with that huge Oscar that had the sunken belly with the big albino pacu. Guy said they were in same tank together lol so I don't know how healthy she really is.

Yep. That was the biggest oscar I've ever seen. The festae was really active and aggressive today showing no signs of stress or parasites. Maybe if someone picks her up soon, it won't be such a problem. Of course I'd still quarantine and perform all the usual procedures with new fish. Whitie's has a bad rep for sick fish and such so I'd be careful. The bass in the same tank has ich all over. :(
 
Last night she was just laying half way on her side. She is super pretty though. By chance were you the guy that sold me that big female synspilium a couple weeks ago?

She seemed healthy as a horse today and would make a great show piece. I wished I had more room for her. And that's not me. I think you're talking about the guy who sold his syns and other centrals on craigslist maybe.
 
Yeah I figured that out lol but yeah he's a member on here too just couldn't remember his name. Well I'm glad she's doing better today. Seeing those juvies in the other isle is really tempting me to pick them up
