Hey all new to this section thought I would share this. I just got my new pima baby hes wicked. I have him set up in a quorantine tank with 2 other fresh fish I just got at the same time. He around 4" to 5" in great shape! I dripped him for 4 hours and put him in. I got him yesterday temp was at 80 come home this afternoon to 71 faulty heater! Hes showing no oll signes but I set the new heater to 82 its rising now but I was mad! But heres a pic of the fast little buger I got guppys in there now I seen him chasing them so when the temp rises he should munch! I plan om raising him up to atleast 6" tgen he gois into a 55 grow lit tank then into a 250gal grow out tank. Lookimg to have a 4000gal custom tank made. Lookong imto that now any one elts have a pima? Whats ur exp?uploadfromtaptalk1336264993808.jpg

i relize the size they get... Im looking into all options. i will have a big tank made or stick with a pond. He is awsome. what ever i decide will be done in a minamum of a few months
tommarow i will try and post a good pic of him. he is fast thow lol
 
Just ordered mine today!! aquascapeonline.com is selling them for 150
 
i got mine localaly,ill defanitly check out others on mfk the pima has always been my favorite fish. ill try and get a good pic today i have a question thow he is acting like hes attacking his reflection on the bottom of the tank should i add sand? i got some yesterday when i got fake plants from the lfs. i can rince it till its clean put it in a rubber made and slowly add it so not to disturb the fish and cloud water. what yall think?
 
No offense here, but are you possibly a little out of your depth?
Are you really sure you are prepared to house and feed a fish they WILL get a lot bigger than YOU?
