You are so far the only one who posted so many lapens. Seem like ur collection also increased a lot since. It's normal to see stunt bichirs if they are cb as hormones are used to breed them. On the other hand some of them will not get enough to eat that's why never grow big. I faced this problem of stunt fish also.

Interested to see the whitish endi and the washout ornate. Interest to see this as I can't find them here.

icic..agree with you on the reasons of why some of them are stunted. Another things is I feel that the growth rate drop when I change their diet to pellets only.

Will capture some photos and upload on tomorrow or saturday as today still not around

The flower bichir kept for 2 years only..ya..LFS normally sell cb juv..I only saw few times large ornate bichir for sale in LFS, not very often. I think will be easier to find it from hobbyist if you are looking for a larger size..

Bro, u better dun jump the gun yet. U just started and u want to play with such expensive bichir. Get use with ur current polypterus and learn more on how to keep them before u buy. It cost $500-$650 for a 2inch plus plat endi without defect. It would be cheaper if defects can bee seen.

You seem to be asking this question in a few forums I know. So what answers did u get?

nowadays, can get from indo direct, u chose, they deliver to sgp. U happy. U pay.

These guys sell to local lfs. Lfs or local guys take a margin and sell to us.

Few lfs ever offer me plat endi.. and i found the Indo supplier ..

All of them send me same pic and videos
