as big maybe, bigger but by one inch., as there are almost none, no rhombeus in this country larger than 18" that is confirmed. and plus that picture was taken around 2002, at that time, there were very few that large in the country.triply;3744975; said:2 as big if not bigger local to me i will upload pics when i can.

I hope that the economy will be better this year, more fish for everyone to keep and that all the fish people can get along!
I want to set the record straight, for all these years of dealing with fish and fish people, I've never done anything malicious to anybody, not a business or hobbyist and I hope that all the people who read this can do the same.
People need to realize, a healthy debate is good, sharing of fish is fun, but after all its still a hobby. Its important to keep it light and fun. If I've offended anyone in the years, I want to be the first one to apologize.
My future endeavors for keeping fish will hopefully lead me to finding more new fish in the years to come. I will certainly deal less with selling/importing/exporting fish, as that is not where my heart is.
With the advent of internet, fish have become much more accessible. I remember 12 years ago when internet was still in its infancy, it was much harder to obtain fish. Many of the fish you see in this thread, I had to fly to different countries to bring them back myself. Now most people take this for granted, unfortunately.
I am glad that digital photography is so advanced now that many fish memories can be immortalized in photo, where as back then I had a 1 megapixel camera I bought at Target to capture fuzzy memories.
Cheers to everyone!

Wrong place to post that. Find some free glass pieces on craigslist, and buy some AQUARIUM SAFE silicon and build it yourself. Check out the diy section of the forum.carnivorekeeper;3753482; said:whoa nice strugeon hey where do you get a cheap big fishtank cuz im stuck with a 10 gallon and have a giant asian upside down catfish and a swordtail i cant afford a 5star fishtank for my catfish so please help and im in california
