Yep thats a peacock bass, a big male of about 15" (though obviously they get a lot bigger).
Try Dan at Tropical imports for cheaper peacock bass, he has a couple of species in stock at the moment http

Nice pics, everyone. Karmann, I loved the video of your fish!!
Well this big fish isn't mine, but at 6-8 feet it's the biggest fish I've ever taken a picture of...
As for the tank, this is my son's biggest fish at the moment... Herbie, the algae eater. We estimate he's a little over 3 inches long, since the thermometer he's clinging to is 4 inches long. This summer we plan on upgrading to a bigger tank.

Cichla Monoclus "Tapajos" is the scientific, tapajos is just the river, also have a 5 other bass that aren't big enough to play with these ones yet. I'ved paid between 20 and 40 quid depending on the species of bass.
Thanks

Well the idea started from everyone telling us our tank was too small for the number of fish we have. Then my husband starts saying, "It would be nice to have a bigger tank, get some cool new fish. Ooohhh a saltwater tank would be nice...."
We're not getting a saltwater tank, but we're definitely excited about getting a bigger one with possibly more fish in it. We have our eye on a 29-36 gallon... can't remember how big it was right now.Sorry for the temporary hijack... everyone's big fish pics are cool!! B)

No-one have any Red Tail Catfish?
They are my favorite! If I could ever have the room and the money to make them a lovely indoor pond with a few in I would.
