African Pompano
 
A LFS here in Saskatoon has just recently got in a few African Pompano's (Alectis ciliaris I believe). I've read they can reach up to 130 cms and 22.5 kgs?!?! They're in with the corals and look really cool as the juveniles have very long colourful streamers - but are they suitable for a reef tank. Mine's 63" X 24" x 24" so just under 160g. They are really cool, but I'm not looking for a fish that will become a nuisance or a meal for the family. Has anyone ever had one of these? Some personal experience would be great! Thanks in advance.
