Hi Willem,

You have some nice fishes there. You said that you had planned for small but ended up going big and I can clearly see that, but you big fishes look nice and healthy, so well done. However, I cannot make out on the pic what those Garra's are. They look like they really love you!

Kind regards,

Dirk

[Willem]

Hi Dirk

Thank you for the compliment, they are part of the family

The Garra's are the Garra Rufa what they call the doctor fish or other name Redish log sucker I use them on my skin for

the skin condition called Psoriasis

I have seen the tanks and I find it hard to believe that Willem ever planned to go small - lol!

[Charles]

I tend to agree with you on your statement - lol

[Vissie]

I had two massive oscars, never again! Barbarians they are, I had to feed each oscar seperatly otherwise one of them would get all of the food, my poor fingers. How they will recover I dont know, the floor was always wet under the tank after feeding time. How big is yours?

[Dirk Bellstedt]

Ag no man Vissie,

You guys just can't take the punch of big fishes. I mean Oscars are actually tiny. You should rather go to the Amazon and get yourself a true gaint, Arapaima gigas (belongs to the gourami family, believe it or not).

Kind regards,

Dirk

[f-fish]

Ja - saw Arapaima gigas while visiting Singapore Aquarium .. wow - huge.

Hi Willem, How is the pangasius doing ?

[Vissie]

Prof, comes from a man whos favorite fish is a discus! Totally opposites of the oscar haha

What a tiny fish! That one doesn't look like family of the gourami at all! What about two pirannas, I see one guy is selling them on gumtree, whats the chance of getting a piranna in bloemfontein! If anyone is interested I could go and have a look for you to confirm they are indeed pirannas.

Kind regards,

Hannes

Sorry to answer on your behalf Willem but Vissie, the Oscars are a good 28cm or so and look really good. It is nice to see large Oscars in a more than large enough tank. gdt78 Your old pangasius looks really well with no marks on it whatsoever - usually large pangasius have a few battle wounds from bumping themselves.

[Willem]

DarylA thanks for your reply(answers) Vissie yes mine are used to feed together they each go to there own places when I feed them and so use to me I can stroke them when I feed them. Dirk Bellstedt yes prof nice fish that but my plan is to get the pangasius to round about that size aswell,................ but about the wooden tank I let you in on it next year.....!!!!!!

Regards
Willem
