quote:Originally posted by Steelhead what are the fishes considered indigenous to TTT Lake? and what kind of alien species are we targetting here? thanks.
First and foremost, allow me to point out the mistake on the date. It’s supposed to be this Sunday May 24.
Correction has been done to the notice.
There are plenty of Peacock Bass there for one and also Jaguar Cichlids,Red Emperors, Flower horns, etc just to name a few. Targeting them should be the priority.
