I would have to agree with Martin Hi.Martin Hi. wrote:hi,

Re: Cross River T. pustulatus?
Thanks for the use of my word there the other option of course is fahakulatus, both sound pretty cool to me.
Back to the fish in question even if it is a Fahaka its a lovley looking one and worth buying if you have the tank for it

I would snatch him up in a heartbeat. I would love to see what he looks like in a homey tank environment.

Re: Cross River T. pustulatus?
I'm not sure whether I'm going to get this guy mainly because he's already so big. I'll check back every now and then at the LFS and see if he grows on me.
