I wanted to see if this is a Paroon Shark and if they are rare? I think I over paid for this big guy!

Using him along with a dozen Convicts to seed my 720!

Anybody have any experience with them and any ones thought if he can cruise with a big Armatus? My LFS guy said they were completely docile with absolutely no aggression towards other fish.

Agree, an IDS with a smashed snout and a bit of a strangely high back.

If your LFS guy was talking about paroons, not IDS, he was dead wrong. What he said sounds like the IDS character. Paroons will eat and attempt to eat anything possible that can even barely fit in their mouth. If it does not fit at all, it is usually quite safe.
 
So, you paid good money to throw it with a bunch of convicts so they can cycle your tank?
 
Def an i.d. shark :( lol... he should heal up in a couple weeks or so tho. Hope u didnt pay very much i just got stuck with 8 that size for free.
