The colors in that tank are amazing. I love the black against the plecos and BP's. It just looks awesome, very vibrant. Thanks for sharing.:thumbsup:
 
Cutting off the fish's tail just to get a heart-shaped fish? It's amazing what people will do these days for a little amusement
 
Thanks guys...:)

It was done by the pro in the farm. The concept is the same as the dog Rottweiler, where ppl cut off their tails when they were babies. I doubt it is cruel though, as it doesnt affect the BPs in anyway other than cosmetic appearance... It is just a commercial way to promote the BP...

A) fish need their fins to swim B) when you crop a dog's tail it has to be done in a certain amount of time of when it's born... before the nerve endings develop on the tailbone so it doesn't hurt it... can you prove anything like that with the "heart-shaped" BP? Don't get me wrong, you have an awesome looking setup... I just don't understand with all the amazing freshwater fish out there, people still aren't satisfied and feel the need to purchase something like a "heart-shaped" BP or a jelly bean parrot
 
That tank is a beauty! Love all the arowanas! Enjoy them because i cant enjoy any asian arowanas. :(
 
every singe fish int there is beautiful, though i don't think it's right to cut off that albino BP's tail.
