Yeah Sri Lankan one.Auranti is indeed a beauty but then again it's subtropical and grow quite large. I don't think i can provide them a good home.

QUOTE C. aurantimaculata dont grow too large. just about 40cm on fishbase.org record. might be abit more, so still ok actually. hehe.. Pudu has them? Any particular shop? And pricing? Btw, thanks a lot.IMO keeping a 40cm species in a 2 footer is a sin I don't have space for bigger tank actually I don't know the shop name it's beside darson electronic and the one that sell on the side road under the tree.And when i said sometimes i meant it rarely. The price depend, if many then cheap. Usually around rm15-35.Sometime they also have weird snakehead name e.g haruan harimau |

QUOTE(Arawin92 @ Feb 24 2011, 09:40 AM) i wana get arapaima,but im buying only 3 babies.n my indoor pond is 12ftX10ftX4ft,so the pond will look bloody empty until they grow up.can i mix other carps n fishes that are olmost the same size as the baby arapaima until the arapaima reach a decent size to be mixed with bigger fish like pacu? hey i have no experience with pima but all i know is that they feed alot and grow very fast, so the lampam n kelah will be too small and will be food in just 6-7 month i have 2 pond the other pond is bigger but its outdoor in the garden so my dad only wants koi in that pond but im curently having koi,lampan,Pacu and other fishes in there...my plan is to keep the arapaima in the smaler indoor pond till they are bout 2ft then bring all the pacu from outside n mix with the arapaimas into the indoor pond. so until they grow to be 2ft,can i mix other smal lampan n kelah with them so the indoor pond doesnt look empty??? i dun wana mix the pacu nw becoz they are huge 1-2ft++ so they will eat the baby arapaima if i mix.. P.S:need advise,im keeping fish for bout 15years but 1st time getting my dream fish "the araipama"...so exited..!! Added on February 24, 2011, 12:54 pmcan i get arapaima from pudu?r anyone in this thread selling any? |

QUOTE(Arawin92 @ Feb 27 2011, 03:56 PM) guys i got another 1.5ftx1ft tank.cn recomend sum "Unique" fish to keep? i wud prefer if keep a few together.no prob if the wud grow larger coz i cn transfer them to the 3ft tanks afta i send the arapaimas to my pond... you know it's hard to comprehend unique when talk about fish they are all unique depend on the keeper..someThanks. like it big some like it small..if you want large species try pangacius aka patin normal or high fin or rtc(red tail catfish) or tsn(tiger shovelnose)..if you want below 3 feet try polypterus endlicheri or ornatipinnis and many other good luck |
