Favorite Co New for 2017

New additions to the Ancient Fish line. Looks to me like a Scleropages (their existing arowana is an Osteoglossum) and an Atractosteus.

How did I miss this?

Also...squeeeee! I am more surprised that they did the Osteoglossum first, and the Scleropages second (there are 3 figures of the former, and uncountable numbers of the latter).

A new gar is also welcome. Would have been nice to see one that wasn't an alligator gar, but maybe they'll add a genus later? Or maybe it will turn out to be a Tropical? Those are popular if expensive aquarium fish in Japan.

i hope they paint their Asian Arowana in normal wild type markings, not the captively cultivated deep red by ornamental fish farmers.

  Wonderful! It's great to see that they are continuing the line.
