Re: ***FS*** Look Downs aka Selene Vomer(saltwater)

i was told a 125+ tank would be fine for small schools.. they  are nice fish .. i caught them myself.. i dnt have a big tank for them so i have to sell.. i will probably sell to a LFS if noone wants them

depending on how you cook them.... almost like croaker mixed with....... can't think of the name in english but ca chim is what it's called in vietnamese...ok I googled it and I think this is the scientific name----colossoma brachpomum.

Usually cooked with quite a bit of fish sauce and various other spices.

they need big tank with strong current, the place i used to work at in sugarland used to have whole bunch, a few died when the current maker stop working or something...

Re: ***FS*** Look Downs aka Selene Vomer(saltwater *SOLD*

Yeah I have seen them in various places as well.....also use to see them caught all the time so I would have never thought they were so expensive...

Re: ***FS*** Look Downs aka Selene Vomer(saltwater *SOLD*

they were only 30 bucks a piece, they got 6 to start with, last time i went back there to eat, theres only one left

[JGUERRA]

Re: ***FS*** Look Downs aka Selene Vomer(saltwater *SOLD*

30 where.. at fish gallery they are 105.00

[mahoro]

Re: ***FS*** Look Downs aka Selene Vomer(saltwater *SOLD*

the reason they got it at that price is due to the fact they spend over 20000 - 30000  on their setup per store, take that times 12 stores...
everything at fish gallery is over priced and their quality has drop a lot, i was over there few days ago, and i noticed the amount of dead fish in their tank, dead fish is one thing, but rotten ones is really really bad, makes me not want to go back again...
