Ollie the Armatus, the false scomb grow out thread!

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
Looks like a tat to me, too. Nice pickup! I know how it feels to have to rehome a fish you really like due to unforeseen circumstances, but pretty cool you were able to find a tat that'll stay much smaller than a full grown armatus and not have to worry about upgrading to an armatus sized tank.

I'd say start a new growout thread for the tat, and just have csaechao update this one with pics for the original Ollie. And you should call him OJ (Ollie Jr, plus the whole stabby OJ thing kind of fits a payara ;))

Thanks guys! And yeah I was lol, but it was HELLA more expensive. I went to the same place where it was 40 before but they were small then and now they tried to quadruple the price! Got him down 20 at least though, and don't have to worry about no one getting eaten. And sweeeeet OJ it is lol! And buff poly armatus are pretty sweet man, if I had the tank space I'd definitely have kept it!

And unfortunately Og Ollie didn't make it in his new tank, he got tagged during an introduction of a new tank mate and unfortunately kicked the bucket :(. At least he's in fish heaven! see you guys in the new thread!
 
Well what happened,did the brycon take him out?
