Regretful sell.

Specialist predator fish. Currently lives peacefully in a tank with a 60+cm barramundi. No guarantees it will live peacefully with a new tank mate, but as far as jacks go, its a pretty friendly one.

Currently in near fresh water. Eats everything from frozen foods to dog biscuits. Only want to sell to an experienced fish keeper with a large enough tank to accommodate it.

$300

PM me if you're interested.

Hi all,

Firstly, turns out it was 52cm, not 40cm.
Secondly, I know this because is measured him after he died.

Air blower and Venturi failed over night. Woke up to find him lying on the bottom of the tank. 70cm barramundi with him has just managed to survive though. Not happy at all.

Thanks,
Shane.

Mate that is horrible, mine had a similar fate earlier this year after western power shut the power to the street off without telling anybody for "maintenance". Doesn't take long for big fish to suffocate

I feel your pain, mine died at 42cm & I was devastated. Sorry for your loss.

I saw these guys last year. They were massive beasts. I hope the barra makes it at least.

Sorry for your loss, he's a beautiful fish.
