i though it was a red tilapia, but in this link clears my mind about it being a tilapia

also red tilapias or comestible tilapias are not aggressive.

Hi,

Nice fish! It's so cool that you can get wild fish, for your aquarium, almost right at your back door! Wish I could do that, but I live in Canada and there are no tropical fish around here! It's way to cold. I know it's off topic, but are there Cories in some of the rivers close to you? I'm just a Cory freak, and was just wandering.

awesome on bringing the leaf fish home. How did you transport him all the way from Ecuador?

Did you hold him in your lap on the plane? :joke: I jest.

ohh, I get it now! Yes, traveling is very good. The natural beauty of this planet never ceases to amaze, nor the warmth and beauty of its peoples :)
