That saratoga is awesome! you should get a pool, fill it up with suitable water and start a family of saratoga, for which you will be able to cast lures at!

beautiful fish... always wanted to throw one of them in my tank after my pet barra jumped out one day... never got round to it tho :( always wanted to throw flys for them also

they are fairly aggresive fish, he's my fish and im scared of putting my hand in the tank, a bloke i knew in karratha tim barlow converted his swimming pool into a "barra tank" last i heard he had a couple in the 20kg range (barra that is) problem with having a tank with that much water in perth is heating it, toges (my fish) is in a 6x4ft tank and he has no problem turning around, but they do grow quite large, so ill have to find a new home for him soon, maybe the zoo will take him, but i really dont want him in the croc encloser.

Great fish I've got one in my tank too I've only had him since August last year and can probably only keep him for another 6-8 months as he too will outgrow my tank. I've got a few Catties and a pair of south american cichlids in with him which he doesn't bother. Will definitely get another I reckon.

Jardini?? 

yeh thats wat i have been told, however a good mate of mine can quarantine him for me as he does most of their fish there at the zoo, and yeh jardini STEVE231, still has both whiskers aswell, i origanally had a couple barra until some tool turned the power off to my tank, not happy.

madfisher, are all the fish the same size? in your tank that is, coz once he decides he the dominant 1 the others are history, i had a huge aglae eater in with him and he was malled by toges once he decided he was the dominant 1, they have amazing colours hey. especially when they light up. blues pinks greens, awesome species

nice saratoga, i remember when I used to have mine, awesome fish ay, killed every fish i had in my tank lol.

yeh he did the same with me, hes gone off live fish the cheeky barstard, had to get him some yabbies, loves yabbies now.
