If duce2 is ok with everything except the diadema and you like the texas how about leaving out the diadema swap it for a gt.

i think if the diadema was removed and duce2 was left in then the rotkeil would become the next target as he gets a bit when the diadema isnt near :crazy:

i just think that without the texas i can add other fish also without too much trouble. the diadema is a close 2nd to keith he is a stunning fish when he isnt being stressed and torn up :crazy:

i am really tempted with an Uaru or maybe 2. they had them in at wharf this weekend and just made me want them :drool:

not the most colourfull fish but nice in their own way and most of all peacefull :hyper:

the 2nd jaguar catfish is reserved for Ryan until ND sort him out with the correct tank.... shouldnt be long now mate :hey:

Cant blame me for trying :lol:

I admit I love the look of urau, thats definately on my list for the future :good:

sorry i didnt read it as a swap with your GT....
i see where you are coming from now :grr:

my diadema is staying here hands off :lol:

yeah the Uaru looked really nice at wharf and they had quite a few in to choose from. ive read they need to be in groups of 2+ rather than a single specimin so i might have to get 2 :hey:

Matt,

MA near me have a pair of Urau, male is 10+" and female is around 9"... They're huge and in beautiful condition!

I can do some digging for you if you're interested? :good:

I saw them the other day and spent about 5 mins watching them, amazing fish... :drool:

Duce 2 was caught and removed and put up a great battle of tactics to get him :lol:

fish are not daft are they...?

he is now in the 180, this is why the tank is peacefull again :nod:

does anyone want to buy Duce2? :unsure:
