Title: Oreochromis Tanganicae

Anyone keeping these? Seems like we had some being passed around here in the Chicago area a couple of years ago, but haven't seen any around in awhile.

I've kept them. Nice fish, they do get very big. I had a wild caught group of 8. They weren't too aggressive. I'd definitely keep them again if I had the chance.
I lost my group to a blue heron one summer. I had them outside in my pond. He got them all in one night. Only fish I ever lost out of my pond.
