Different places different names, that is why scientific names are usefull (but they are damn confusing and difficult to remember and pronounce).

This is what they call Sea Bass in Hong Kong, perhaps more correct but never the less..different. Looks something like what they call Sea Trout in the US.

Hi Bobby,
The Baramundi of Australia have a whole lot more colour than the ones that i have seen here. They are both of the same species though right ?

Indian Barramundi are almost always caught in saltwater where they're bright silver with a yellow tail. Aussie Barramundi are exactly the same from sattwater and if you do a search for "saltwater barramundi", those are the images that you'll see.
The shine fades to grey after death so a lot of the trophy shots that get posted on here tend to be of rather grey and rather stiff fish.

In freshwater, barramundi do well and are frequently found in billabongs and stocked impoundments. Barramundi that have grown up in freshwater tend to be much darker than the saltwater fish. Some of the really big fish from places like lake Tinnerroo are almost black across their backs. These are probably the darker fish that you're refering to Owen.

Thanks for that Ken. Have some pix of Baramundi taken from impoundments. Really beautiful looking fish with copper gold flanks and the rest silver. Thought they were some of the best looking fish i have seen.

Oh. Straight to the contraversial stuff !
I was once in an animal charity shop where they were selling toy white seal pups.
I asked how much they were and was told that they were something like £47.
I was genuinly shocked that they were so expensive but my mistake was to tell the lady that it was a bit steep and Me and my mates would have to club together to buy one.
Went down like a lead ballon......

hahahahahahaha
