How long have you been around this site?
Some of us have been obsessed a lot longer. Rising popularity is due to availability of Armatus.
I had my first Scomb around 3 years ago.....It was gutted by a moray. Been obsessed with them ever since. Waited a year to be able to purchase an Armatus. While waiting aquired a shoal of Tats. Before the Tats as a replacement for the first Scomb was a pair of Rhaphs.
I believe the initial interest in Payara came when G. (Shark Aquarium) brought the first batch of Armatus in around this time last year if I'm not mistaken. After the owners began reporting rediculous growth rates and an attitude second to none the payara craze began to spread like the plague.
Being an enthusiast is one thing. Being an owner is a way different story......because seeing is believing.
