Nile Perch...

[ZOO YORK 207]

good luck with the Nile. Definitely keep us posted. How long do these fish live, assuming their 6foot lenght, Im guessing like 20 years plus right?

Live about 16yrs.

Coloration....
JohnPTC's fish looks nothing like the ones in the store. I'm assuming John's fish is older, but originally was brown and tan mottled?? I'm curious now...
