You guys have any suggestion on what else I should start hunting for? This is my mission, is to find that rare fish. Or guess what I have cooking already? I do have a few things, but maybe you guys can come up with more ideas on something rare, and hopefully not illegal fish, or I'd love to get some Channa barca, as it is available to me, just can't bring them to the U.S.

that would be sick if you could get channa barca. As soon as i get back to HK i'm on a mission to find at least one.

There are no C . Barca , as there has not been one collected for over a year now, unless you were to buy one of the only 3 that are kept outside of Japan (I doubt very much he would sell though) . There are only 10-11 pcs that have been collected and potentialy still alive, although some of those are now possibly dead too. I know of 3 that have died in captivity that were imported for the aquarium trade.

yeah, but I heard David from Japan was going to sell me a pair :ROFL: Thanks for the update. Oh, how about Channa amphibius, how is the availability of that, I hear they're available in Japan right?

whats the name of that circled fish??
That's a sleeper goby type, hypseleotris marmoratus. The cool and weired thing about this tank is that he has a pygocentrus piraya in with a datnoid, some cats, and some gobies.
