Panther Grouper

[Tom500]

I am curious about the conversion to fresh because I love groupers but cant afford a SW setup...

I imagine you couls set up a really profitable business of selling full freshwater, salt water fish, id buy!!

interesting. i have my reservations but if this' what floats yer boat, more power to ya.
the snout does look rather blunt though... never seen a panther like that.
i'm actually gonna pick up a few of these guys in the next week... for my SW tank

Thanks everyone!

wow i thought it was only the bumblebee that could be converted, can all groupers be put in fresh?

Also the panther will definitely look the best

Good question, I'm not sure. Only one way to find out

._. isnt panther "too salty" to be acclimated into fresh? cuz panther never goes into freshwater territory like bumblebe....

but anyway, how come tis panther looks deformed? ._.

We'll see. I think the snout grows in with age.

It's snout is rather blunt.

looks normal for a baby, to me, had one that didnt work out.

Sorry to hear

woah! nice experiement. the second i see it in freshwater and eating. imma call you! haha
imma try it for myself.

Go for it!

ive seen one in full fresh i hope it works out for your dude because it looks real sweet with aros

Whos? Any pics??

WOW, that plec looks lovely!

Plec? That's a grouper. lol

Once I get a little more size on him-likely around 3"

if i remember correctly the other was that accidental result of R/O water changes and no salt being added to the tank over some time...

If this works.. I would love to try it..

Has anyone ever tried it with a lionfish ?
