27-10-2007 22:15 by big cats	thats not a tigrinus its worth about £70 tops
28-10-2007 10:24 by Ed	Big cats it is not a tigrinus and jake thefish is for sale on the peru list of fishes i get every month,it is £875 plus the freight plus taxes and the shop will put on a grand so it would cost about £2000 in total.You can buy a house in peru for that they must think we are total idiots over here.
28-10-2007 10:47 by Fry Lover	no we dont have any idiots who keep big catfish do we?
28-10-2007 10:49 by Fry Lover	i know you mean more about the price though....... what LFS has a fish that costs that much anyway? I never seen it? Most expensive fish i seen in an LFS is about £1000 for a Stingray in Wild Woods
28-10-2007 11:32 by Ed	Was it a tiger stingray lex as they are the most exspensive,koi carp £100.000 plus.
28-10-2007 11:37 by Fry Lover	not sure on the Ray I know Koi can fetch that kind of money, where was that then? They must have some good security in place i guess, stop people theiving it?
28-10-2007 12:01 by Bogwoodbruce	Isn't that a jurenese?
28-10-2007 12:13 by tasha	cmon guys im worth 1000000 let alone u saying u wudnt buy me ? lol x
28-10-2007 12:19 by Fry Lover	i'd buy you Tasha or rent you
28-10-2007 12:41 by big cats	ed, obviously i know its not a tigrinus, i did say that didnt i? ,but the question is , what is it, cos on first glance it looks like a juruense but if you look close, it isnt, the striping is wrong. any chance of a bigger pic? and in answer to fry lover. yes there are people on this forum who keep big catfish ,and you wouldnt call me an idiot to my face ,so try not to show your utter lack of manners and not do so over a forum, i have kept fish for many years and reserve the right to keep what i want when i want,most of the fish kept in this country are kept in less than perfect conditions and i am aware of the requirements of my three red tails two tiger shovelnoses (1 tigrinun,1 fasciatum) and my silver aro oh and not forgeting my 6 oscars two butti's and 9 severums, if you want to keep rays i do not judge , how many fishkeepers give discus what they deserve ? this forum is full of people slagging of fellow fishkeepers if you dont have something helpful to say then say nothing
28-10-2007 13:11 by Fry Lover	why you getting all worked up big cats, i put this at the end of my comment above as its tounge in cheek If you want to get the hump over it, so be it, but i certainly wasnt personally calling anyone an idiot I think what's happened here Big Cats, is that you've taken it too seriously. I am more than happy to discus this if you want, you can PM me if you like.
28-10-2007 13:23 by Ed	The catfish is Brachypatystoma jurense AKA CHULACHAQUI ,i dont think any offence was meant big cats.
28-10-2007 13:27 by Fry Lover	blimey Ok, people who keep big cat fish are usually not idiots (there would be the obvious exception) of course. It was a joke, i retract it!!! Big Cats is not an idiot as far as i know. He doesnt sound like an idiot Sorry Big Cats!
28-10-2007 13:30 by Ed	Lex about a year ago two English guys won the top koi carp prize in japan and i think the fish were valued at nearly a million pound ,i cannot get it on the pc but someone like paul stevens or wayne could put it up computer wizards.
28-10-2007 13:33 by Fry Lover	i found this when browsing http://www.dailymail.co.uk/pages/live/articles/news/news.html?in_article_id=488131&in_page_id=1770 But apparently the fish is worth "only" 30k Can someone do the link for me please? Or you can cut & paste it Ed
28-10-2007 16:46 by big cats	sorry guys had a bad day didnt read the thread through ,if thats a juruense why the massive price tag?
28-10-2007 17:10 by Ed	Thats the price on the listing big cats,i dont know that much about catfish but it does seem a bit steep.
28-10-2007 17:12 by Ed	Does it make any difference if the cat is albino ,i meen pricewise.
28-10-2007 19:40 by big cats	it would because as far as i know they are all wild caught ,the chance of catching a wild albino is so tiny , hobby horse poo springs to mind??? juruense just arn't that expensive normally but unusual colouring can make a difference but not that big a difference??
