What size tank is that? It look stunning! Love the barbs.

Thanks for the kind words. The tank is about 720 gallons. I have a collection of barbs, tors, etc...I love them

a few updated shots

Awesome wimple carp in there. Love those guys, shame they are illegal over here

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.

Labeo's I've got a few rarer ones my self but the pics out there on the others is non existent. Not enough of these monster cyprinids making it out of Asia

I would definitely be interested in getting some Labeo spp., and some of those crazy-looking archers, too

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.

I can get a variety of labeos, from different countries, African or Asian, depends on what you like. Let me know.

The archer, I'm working on it, but that's going to be a toughy!

 

[fugupuff]

=P.

hmm...that shouldn't be that rare, I've seen various species in the past, and I'm sure they're available in Singapore for a decent price. Unless you have something specific in mind.
