The last one is an ARAPAIMA, not arowana. (Unless I am very much mistaken)

That isn't a yellow lab, either. Maybe a peacock?

The designs on that arowana are quite interesting. It almost looks like it's a trophy of some sort

It's not an arowana at all. I knew that when I saw the voting.

What I want to know, is honestly who has an arapaima in an aquarium on the boards. Of course I'll have to wait, but honestly you need a 1000 gallon tank for them. They get HUGE. I'm suspicious if that's a real picture from someone's aquarium on the forum or if it was pulled off the internet. Of course I mean no offense or am judging against it. I just have a hard time believing it.

It has to be your photo, but it doesn't need to be your fish. You can submit pics from public aquariums.

That makes more sense, and kinda loses my interest in POTM then. Oh well.

Funlad is definitely right, but everything else looks so funny! And I think it should be photos of your own fish... It makes it a little more fair... Unless this is a photo-taking contest not best-looking fish contest... Or is it really that and my interpretation has been wrong all along?....

i think that having it to be your picture is better because some peoples fish are harder to get pictures of than others and the tank have to be your own because well... there easy to photograoh.

TOS rules .. sorry guys.

im taking enetries for next month too
