Monster00101 · 05/03/2010, 01:58 AM

Is this even real i cant find nothing out there?

The Escaped Ape · 05/03/2010, 03:29 AM

Juvenile Sailfish of some kind I think.

Monster00101 · 05/03/2010, 03:35 AM

Is that something u can keep in a tank im guessing it will get big fast?

The Escaped Ape · 05/03/2010, 04:50 AM

Er, no, I wouldn't think so. Unless your tank is several hundred miles long.

I watched a show on them. It is pretty neat how they start out pretty well formed like an adult. I doubt that you could even keep one happy in a large public aquarium as they are fast and far swimmers aside from their huge size.

Nice find. Link to the website? Or do you know where it was found?

Can I put one of those in my biocube? I swear I plan to upgrade soon.

I figured i knew the answer nut had to try just in case. How cool would that b to have a mini sword fish in ur tank.

footballdude2k3 · 05/03/2010, 02:48 PM

how cool would it be to have bill gates money?

Monster00101 · 05/04/2010, 01:37 AM

gmatta · 05/04/2010, 01:50 AM

Monster00101 · 05/05/2010, 03:35 PM
