African arowana are NOT like normal asian or south american arowana. they dont prey on fishes. so.. do some homework bro.. hehe..

c.temensis i have large specimen only, h.armatus expect RM500 and above (rare and highly priced fish), h.niloticus need to check, cheapest stingray i have full-spotted chain-ring black motoro (p.motoro), RM270, 6 inch disc + long tail..

shipping fishes? lol. minimum USD150 will be gone tansporting these guys over by plane ONLY! Plus all the highly priced rare fish, DOA around 10% might be more if from other non generous exporter, sometimes even 90% DOA. Lots of documentation to be done, approval from fishery department before u can think of imports. So do the maths and you will know why Malaysia have less than i would dare to say.. 2% of ultra rare-fish importers? lol. Yet many of the fish keepers says, "Why so expensive one?" (which ppl did not think of where our Ringgit Malaysia stands in trading).... "I rather buy asian arowana!"... etc etc.. Therefore after so many years, we're all still stucked at this level of fish keeping.
Guppies (not higher range Moscow Black, Full red albino etc), discus (not even heckel, wild variant), goldfishes, arowana (african arowana?), common barbs, characins (payara, wolf fishes?) common cats (red-tail cats only??) and all the ciplak fishes only =.= shakehead.gif

is that green spotted puffer fish . NVR MIX THAT f***ER WITH ANYTHING !



Puffer vs arowana 10 times bigger than him = arowana lose

Puffer vs HUGE bandaraya fish = huge bandaraya fish gg

Puffer vs Huge cray fish = broken arm and death

My damn bloody watersnake is sked of puffer .

Ben,

I would suggest you NOT to sell of ur current collection but to further increase your collection.
Especially the silver arowana.. get some nice tank mates and i'm sure your tank will look great and complete smile.gif

Haha.. and ur right with that Takifugu ocellatus puffer fish..
Guys take note.. this puffer CANNOT com with any fishes except for their own species.. The puffer lovers will love this fish due to the way they behave.. it's "cute"..
it wont kill your fish (unless its smaller than him) this fishes are extremely bad ass.. they like ripping of any fishes fins.. so DO NOT mix with any fish! DO NOT catch them with bare hands.. 1 bite will send you straight to hell..


Added on October 19, 2010, 3:09 amhere are some exotic catfishes..

guess what are they.. icon_idea.gif
