Charles Posted May 28, 2009 Report Share Posted May 28, 2009 Here is a few photos of his collection. Although I should take more photos of his other fish, but I was really in a hurry so I can only snap a few shots. He is also known to build some of the most amazing stands. His idea of how to build a sump was excellent and I can't wait to start mine using his idea... I will hopefully have time to follow up with photos of some of his designs for his stands and sumps. Perrunichthys perruno catfish. This catfish broke one of my filter before it went to Richard's place. Photo doesn't show the pattern well. Thai silk flowerhorn. Amazing color. It is nice to see how they are doing. African arawanna. Can't take a clear photo of it swimming. So this laying down photo will do. It is very active. Flagtail. He has 3 and they are also schooling with a group of his red hook silver dollars. Lastly, Aussie lungfish from Theo. There are a lot other fish I would like to photo. For example, his tiger knife fish, jaguar catfish, niger cat, giraffe cat, lots of bichirs, and the rest of his plecos. Enjoy... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Parachromis1 Posted May 30, 2009 Report Share Posted May 30, 2009 That is only like a third of his collection Charles! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Charles Posted May 30, 2009 Author Report Share Posted May 30, 2009 a third, it is more like 1/5. He has so many fish and tanks. Just about every room in his huge house, he has at least a 180 in there. And he already have 2 6 footer + a tub in his garage and he is building more. His fish is very lucky. For example, an aba aba 22" long knife fish gets a 6 foot tank all by itself. Catfish will get their own tank... Going to his house is like walking into an exotic fish store.

rudy Posted May 30, 2009 Report Share Posted May 30, 2009 Very cool! The cat almost looks like a Learius Pictus though not Perruno? Here is a few photos of his collection.

Froggie Posted June 5, 2009 Report Share Posted June 5, 2009 Lastly, Aussie lungfish from Theo. That's the winner right there. Words cannot describe how much I want one of those. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
