What do you mean things we cant keep? Because people CAN keep those and HAVE kept those. And blue cats dont grow as large as paroons, rtcs, or tsns... Either way, this thread is kind of worthless and there have been MANY other threads JUST like this posted.

WHOA Thanks for contributing, I had no idea anyone could create a post so riveting and positive.

Show me the links. And even if they do exist, why shouldn't he? So he goes and comments on those and people say "ehhh this threads x years old what are you doing"?
 
i didnt know it was legal to keep mekong giants, and i just figured no one had the cash to keep a 10 foot long wels. and the reason i posted mississipi blue cat, was cause they can get very onry. and ya when i post on the older threads people go wtf, that thread is like 5 years old, forget it allready.
