My big ass fish

it's not as big as some people's fish, but damn this thing sure has grown, to about 7 inches now. it's an oscar fish and actually, that's a bit of an old pic. she or he has much more orang-ish color now. i still don't know how to tell if it's a male or female...it's about one and a half years old too. boodahs is it's name.
boodah's fuckin mean too! maybe not mean, but he's pretty agressive. like when i go to feed him, he opens wide and bobs half way out of the water sucking in fingers and all if they happen to be in the way. and sometimes, when he's real hungry, he sloshes water all over the damn place. anybody else have some big fat fish?

if i get real close and eye him up, he opens his mouth as wide as it'll go and rams the glass! lol i put his tank right next to the computer. there's also a plecostamus in there, he's like a tank. i should take a pic of him too..

yeah, that's a pretty cool sight. kind of mean i think, but that's nature sometimes. except i'm able to control this little habitat and there's no need for 5 or 6 little goldfish to be preyed upon with no chance to escape. plus they make a mess when they come out the other end. they're still on the menu though...just once in a blue moon. =)

a big ass tank of piranhas would be pretty cool. i saw a video once where they threw a feeder mouse in a tank with a few piranhas and it was just crazy. so mean though...lol

How big is your tank Felix?
I'm thinking of buying tons of fish.....I want some nice shit...what would be a good sized tank for 50+ fish? That would be cool if I could get a tank around my computer desk, or have an entire room with walls of fish. that's be sick.
the largemouth bass i have are like 7+ lbs I caught them and put them in my pond...
One time I seen a crayfish in a river once and the fucker bit my finger so hard! god damn things....they taste like lobster I heard?
gl with your fish and post more pictures of it feeding that would be cool !! <3

You don't want a piranha. They're the most boring fish ever. I had 9 of them in a 125 gallon tank and got rid of all of them... not nearly what they're cracked up to be, at least not Pygocentrus piranha(Redbelly, Caribe, Ternzeti, etc). Maybe a black piranha MIGHT be cooler, but I wouldn't count on it.
Felix... you live in Europe, right? Snakeheads are still legal over there. You should get yourself a "redline" or "giant" Snakehead if you want a big ass agressive fish.
Haha... that video you saw of the piranhas eating a mouse might have been a video I recorded
BTW, here's some old pics of my piranhas:

my buddy used to have a fish like that, we would feed it crickets and grasshoppers all the time, it loved them more than its normal food. Also, that thing was able to eat an entire 1 inch long grasshopper in one gulp, and it did the same thing where it comes to the top and jumps out a little to eat, splashing water everywhere, it was awesome.
peace
