2m and 60kg :woo:

It won't get that big in my care...but hopefully I can get it around the 1meter mark.

Awesome fish, what size tank is it in?

Snowy - August 23, 2006 06:04 AM (GMT)
tjudging that by wanting it 1 meter.. id say the tank is like.. couple hundred gallons?, like.. 7 feet long..... probably

but yeah thats a beautiful fish.. kinda reminds me of fish for white bass in the mississippi river where the minnehaha creek interjoins.. great spot for people in the twin cities

The fish is currently in a 240 gallon holding tank...I use this tank for quarantine.

It will go into its bigger home later :)
