You guys have been there... you have this fish that you totally drool over, but cannot have because you either dont have the funds, the space, or just cant plain find the fish.

Or maybe you do have all three but this monster would probably need a really big pond or too poisonous etc..


To me, its the lungfish , i love how they get measured into feet and not mere inches, but i do not have the extra tank and space to accomodate a monster fish like that now. The arapaima, its beautiful and so graceful but i wouldnt have the space for it too.. on the same token : Albino Channel Catfish, grows too fast... nice but i have other fish priorities...


whats yours?!?!?

Would you like to have mine!
Damn thing eats EVERYTHING and is "forcing"me to build an indoor pond.

On second thought....I'll keep it hahaha I like the forced pond idea

I would like to have a snakehead, but its not worth the risk
Peacock bass......just dont have the tank space (at the moment)
asian Arowana....yummmmmmyy....Would love to be able to stare at one all day
I'll shutup...the list could go on forever
 
Wow...mighty list for me.

Peacock bass...though if an intermedia came my way I would snatch that up
Albino channel...unless I had a pond
Electric catfish...probably won't ever own one
Northern Pike or Musky
Sharks and rays
Some of the larger saltwater groupers and triggerfish
Siamese Carp
 
Rallysman - yeah size is really the main issue. Theyre so beautiful but they get bigger than a foot almost overnight. Im not closing the doors though, just not right now.

P45- oh. i thought it was because its illegal. Cobras really do get massive.
