Has any one kept or had experiences with these fish ?

no, but they look very cool, have you got/seen them???

Currently have some in a Hastings LFS.. after doing some reading up on them, they get to around the 7 inch mark, and it pays to have them in a large group, the smaller the group the more Pirahna like they become towards one another :lol:

After watching them out at the shop, they seem a busy fish, who is continuously looking for trouble in the tank :lol: They have them in on their own, would definately pay to :lol:

They are capable of drawing blood when they reach a good size also apparently :lol:

I have actually been given 4 by my LFS , as they were being trouble makers . and Know one wanted them .would be nice to try and breed them If they dont kill each other that is ! Such a pretty fish ,for something so nasty !

do you think they will be ok with a pink tailed chalceus ?

In all honesty I don't think I would put them in with anything, I have read they can also take on oscars and do damage, nasty nashers.

Is there any place you can get more?

The ones down this way are in on their own (as in seperate species tank)

dont think they are going to order know more . Dont know why ? ! :evil:

As far as I know they are not on the lists anymore, and to be honest, they are definately a fish that I would want orders for if I had a LFS, not the easiest to shift because of the nature that they are :lol:

never mind i will take them to Therapy ! and explain biting is BAD .Naughty fishy ! dont think they will understand but hey ! :-?

Perhaps it me that needs therapy :roll:

LOL

You can only but try :lol: I think most of us fishkeepers need therapy from time to time :lol:

Thats good i thought it was just me !!! :lol:
