Sweet vid, my payara is just getting over ich ( dont ask ) Shortly he will be getting his own tank with high current. Its realy amasing how fast they are isnt it? One thing that really shocked me is that their 'canines' are hinged, did anyone else notice this? His one canine was folded back into his throat after a feeding shortly after i got him and i thought great, here we go im gunna have a one toothed monster, But a few minutes later he was back to normal. Your fish deffinately eat well, i cant believe the way the one P. stuffed himself in the vid. Chris

I have a possible line on small Armatus! I will keep everyone posted if i can do it!

Hey bro, So what ever happened with your possible hook up on Armatus? That would be awesome if you can score some smaller ones at a decent price. Keep us posted. Thanks.

Hi man hows you Payaras doing. I just have a school of red tails. I have been asking and it is definetly harder than i thought to pick off The Armatus. There was some for sale in LA a few weeks ago for 500 each over 10"!
The smaller Armatus would be awesome since they really do grow alot faster than red tails! My red tails only grew about 2 inches in 8 months, where another red tail i have been keeping track of grew twice as fast!

THIS my payara eats silver sides, he's about 9"

Jeff great fish man i was wanting to ask you, did you starve him to get him off live feeders and do the silversides do you just drop them in front of them. Does he eat dried krill.
I have a few reds that are getting really skinny and wont eat anything but live feeders and that means expensive day feeding always.

The rest i tie silversides on my fishing rod and wiggle them to get the payaras to strike.
