On the day James visited me he was earlier at the Toronto zoo and took these pictures of their lake Malawi cichlid tank.

a few pictures taken by James Martin in the 52,000.

The Arapaima arapaima turned 5 years old in October 2010. They have almost stopped growing and based on my prior experience they weigh about 150 lbs at the 72" length my friends who have been in the tank with them feel they are.

The 4th picture is of the Paraneetroplus synspila in the big tank.

I want to say once again, what an amazing tank! I would love something like this!

Is there anyway you could have a permanent 24hr webcam looking into the tank? I would probably be on there for hours on end,

You reckon the Arapaima have stopped growing??
What makes you think that??
Is the tank not big enough for them?
