Red tail barracuda

[PayaraMan]

I know I just found out from the fwc I'm pissed. My two favorit fish are snake heads and wolffish and I can't keep them. Now I don't know what to get

Gars are good alternatives.

I've found any of the "barracudas" to be skittish and didn't have any luck getting them off of live which ultimately becomes expensive and potentially hazardous to the 'cudas with the chance of introducing diseases.

my yellowtail cuda is hardly skittish and takes frozen silversides and massivore pellets would this be considerd lucky that he takes that?

No sadly I've already barked up that tree, I pray for the day I move to Tennessee and I can keep all the fish I've dreamed of... Lol but seriously I hate our laws.

Dude I live in Tennessee

There are 12 known species of Cachorros (Ace. Family) however the term Red Tail Cuda or Freshwater Barracuda is used liberally through out the hobby as common names for a whole bunch of different fish Acestrohyncus Falcatus the "Red Tail Cacharro" would greatly appreciate tank lengths of 5' long or more and at least 1.5' wide. 55 gal. is a good Exodon Shoal tank however you'd need to check your state invassive species list to see exactly what toothed Characins are legal in Florida.

could u message me some pics and names of some of the other cuda species?

The Ace. Iselinae is supposed to get pretty big...

This is one of the largest and rarest species. The guy who owned these said they outgrew his 200 in 4 months...
