Here is my aussie lungfish. The water is kinda cloudy because of the shrimp I just feed them.

good looking AUL...always nice to see more of those around :) the fish is showing some lateral line erosion just behind the head...this could be caused by several things, but seems to be remedied by adding some vegetable matter to the diet...may want to include some algae wafers (or similar food) in the mix with the shrimp or pellets (or offer the vegetable wafers on alternate feeding days). sounds like you have a nice lungfishes collection going--

I do feed them with pleco wafer. It even try to eat some anubias leaf but it spat it out.
I'm into collecting any primitivefish or any oddball. The only primitive fresh water fsih that I don't have right now is a bowfin. Not planning to keep some 6 feet or more monsters, just the one that I can house with. 4 feet would be my limit.

Not sure how old you are, but I'm only 20. I'm can speak both dialect. I know tagalog, visaya and ilokano. I pretty much understand most of the dialect in Pinas as I been all over the place.
Thanks for the comment btw! Filipino pride:headbang2
