any updated pictures?
Sorry too busy with other hobbies at present. However the next time Rusty Wessel visits I will get him to take some new pics.
Yeah mate, they're an Australian native. Have you ever kept any Aus natives before?
I do keep a mangrove jack. But they're more or less like Dovii's. If they're in a tank of 10,000 gallons or less, they have to be solitary. Psychopathic things.
Hello thanks for your all your responses
“Both fish that I have were bred & raised in north america using the same or very similar water hardness and ph that I have, so no problem in my tanks. Wild caught would need adjustment. The fronts have bred in the 52k and friends estimate more than 60 adults. I have seen the arapaima eat some young adults (15cm to 25cm). The female Wallago leerii has taken some of the bigger ones up to 35cm also.”
Ok, i’m happy because i begin to convert my outdoor pond into an indoor pond and i want to put a lot of cichlid, and Frontosa and Oscar are my favorites.
“Large mouth Bass,not legal to keep as pets where I live and they do not like warm water”
Ok in my country it’s possible to keep them as pets if they have the size to be fished. I have a friend who keep them in an big tank with Peacock bass, and they are very well, i use to go to spain every years, and in the south part of the country, there is a lot of large mouth Bass and the water it's always warm. But you are probably thrue, they probably leave better with an temperate water or with an period with colder water. Maybe you will think that i’m blind, but i think that i saw on one or your pics, goldfish, so maybe if i ‘m not totally delirious it will be possible to maintain large mouth in warm water all the year.
For the Boulengerella Lucius, my friend who have the peacock Bass With large mouth bass, have in the same tank 1 Boulengerealla , 1 silver arrowana, 1 African Pike and 1 Datnoides , one african Arrowana and 2 oscars. The arrowana attack the boulengerella, but i think it’s because the tank it’s to small. The African Arrowana do it well
I also found an video on youtube of a pond with many fish that you keep and there is an african arrowana too ( with fish more aggressive than him dorado, peacock bass, and many fish more quick than it was : hampala Barb, Boulengerochromis, Oscar, …

“Zungaro Zungaro, Have a small one in a 110. Had a 36" plus in the big tank till 2004”
It’s one of my favorite catfish with the Filamentosa
“flat head catfish, Do you mean Ageneiosus marmorata? “
No i’m referring to the Pylodictis Olivaris.
Your Salminus it’s an killer !!, he will kill everything in your 15
Do you have some Catlocarpio Siamensis ?
Do you plan to put another Bagarius ?
Thanks to make us dreaming !
Sorry for my poor english, my proposition is still valid
