I have a pic of that fish on my phone... from the LFS.

It is a serious fish, very active and aggressive! Definately no tankmates....

Did you pay what they were asking?

Thanks to everyone for the nice comments

Wow ... awesome fish! The shine is incredible..

I've never seen one in person though and haven't heard of anyone here keeping them .. how big do they get?

In the wild they can get to 1.2m

Take it it'll have to be specimen only? Nice fish, some of the pictures arent that bad either!

I don't think I really want to risk any fish with this guy. He is just way too crazy.

20", WOW

those teeth look like would shread pretty nicely, hope you dont plane on rearrangeing without a divider...

I know...Cleaning this tank will be a lot of fun

I know

I don't really like taking fish out of the wild though. Also this guy is already full fresh.

And you can't beat its attitude.

A few people I know have caught wild jacks and put them into aquariums....they have been total wimps...
