Vote Guys

I just picked up a baby Silver. You forgot about the Clown Knife though. I've had one of those for a few years now too.

I also have two African Butterfly fish.

I say Bony tongues like arowana and arapaima !!!!!!!!!

You should have titled your thread differently then. Because African Butterflies and Clown Knifefish are Bonytongues too.

i agree with katt in terms of specificity, but i think given the forum its found in, the point is relatively clear

there are, however, some people who have more than one...so it may work to have people list them as well (i know Ivan has both the arap and the african bonytongue ).

myself:
African butterfly fish
African bonytongue

I had to null my vote. We currently have a Silver and Jardini and have had Clown Knives, Royal Knives, and Black Arowanas in the past. We also had an African Butterfly.

o , i thought that arowana and arapaima are the only bony tongues , sorry , any way , i say arowana and arapaima only

Lots of arowanas previously, but currrently:

10 Red
4 Xback
1 leichardti

1~ 14 inch Silver Arowana

1x 15" RTG
1x 20" Jardini

African arowanas (20, 26 and 28 inches)
Arapaima (30-32 inches)
Leichardti (4 inches)
Black Arowana (24 inches)


Ivan

awaiting a black coming in.
dixon

1 9inch jardini.

I've got a 16" redtail golden arowana, a 24" black arowana and a 5" african butterfly fish

Yikes! The poll won't let me vote twice.

I currently have one 19" jardini and two 10-13" African arows.

1 x 14inch red tail gold for me

4 14" silver aros
Had a pima
Arapaima soon to come

9" Xback (blue base), 2x 12" silvers, 20" Green

man , i love ur prochilodus

I've got a Saratoga Leicharti (the other aussie aro).

Why isn't it on the list?

I own Green Arowana and Crossback Golden

Since they are of the same species , I would not try put them together as I try to put a south american with an asian

Hey , how do you mix Prochilodus and Ray together ?

The Prochilodus will not suck the Slime of the Ray ?

i have a 14" prochilodus in with my 18" disc motoro stingray for about a year now and i don't have any problems with the flagtail sucking slime out of any of his tankmates

well , guess you are a lucky fella .

Definately lucky. Every Prochilodus I've had has started to suck on tankmates eventually. The largest I've had was a little over 15". That jerkoff killed a 23" Silver Arowana in one night by taking it's slime coat.

I have

1 silver ( approx 10")
1 Black ( approx 10" )
1 RTG Asian ( approx 10" )
1 1.5 Red Asian ( approx 14" )

3 Gnathonemus petersii

I have one 13" silver arowana at the moment

Since live bony tongues (Osteoglossids) are illegal in my state. Here's a couple of the only types I can keep. The big fella looking up is Phareodus encaustis (22"). The smaller one is Phareodus testis. They've been deceased for about 55 million years from a time that aros could be found in Wyoming. (Green River Basin Formation).

Very cool Oddball!

Pics of my Aro's

another

and the Ferrerai

where's the african butterfly fish?

all changed since this.
i just ordered an 11'' RTG and have no others at the moment.

11"?how much?

afircan butterfly fish isnt an arowana it might seem like it but 2 different fish

it is not an arowana...but it is a bonytongue fish....read the topic title...

they kinda look like aros without the "barbels"

they actually look like arowanas...the way they hunt and the shape of the mouth...just that they are much much smaller and less active...

i got a jardini today that puts my number of boney tongues to 1

my butterflyfish would only "come to life"when there was food or if there was a threat.they lasted for 2 years and then all seemed to die one after another.they were 4" when i got em..maybe that's why.

over £300 not sure what that is in spd.
dixon
