Bichir Thread #54

Godzilla @ 21.5". It's hard to hold ruler with one hand and camera with other. My Silver Aro is 22", so you get idea of how big Godzilla is. My 17.5" Ornate next to Godzilla.

Thks Bro, Del is abt 7"-8", easily the smallest fish in my main tank.
Bro RedEyes maybe a picture from the side body view will help.

As Bro Wind Feng and Desmond mentioned, Its a Koilba, it was in pretty bad shape when I got, but with tlc it has fully recovered.

Yes. It's red/tan/black mixed, but I removed most of it.

It wasn't the last pc but it had the best contrast in a tank full of unstable kolibas, it was also the worst condition which is why all passed on it.

Possibly, especially if it's a big Endli and your tank isn't covered.

Just make sure your tank is properly covered.. Don't under estimate any small holes bro. Remember Bichirs live by this rule, Impossible is nothing

In that case maybe i have to lower water level, cause my tank is a low height floor tank, if cover then not really nice for the outlook. Thanks for the advises !

How big is ur tank? Bichirs can jump really high, lowering it a bit will make no difference and lowering it to 50% shouldn't be an option. Does ur tank have full bracing, I was told by a bro that bichirs tend to jump frm the sides so as long as u have full bracing and no holes even nv cover also ok, but must cover before u off lights and go to sleep lah, in the darkness they still jump.

Thats just a theory btw so dun take my word for it.
