Lol we took a video last night and uploaded it to my YouTube page (link in my signature). It's a beast man. We thought our vieja was the same size and we were wrong. This fish is huge. It just put the 220 or 300+ gallon tank in better reach, more of a reason to get one now.

Actually he is a bit longer more toward 10". He was pointed downward in the net and I didn't want to damage any scales from the metal tape measure I was using, so I didn't push it. . I would go 9 and 3/4. Laughing either way its a beast
