I was in the process of talking to Toyin about this fish. I was just waiting for a final quote + shipping. Guess you beat me to it. Its on now! :swear:
:D Get some pics up for us in its new habitat when it arrives.

Does it have to be a Star Wars name? How about a name that sounds like it's from Star Wars? Here are a few local common names for Protopterus aethiopicus in its' home countries:
Emamba
Kambale mamba
Kamongo

How about Han-Kamongo? 'Kamongo' is the swahili name for the marbled lungfish and 'Han' is a swahili word for 'yes'

White is 'eupe' in swahili. That sounds like a great name; Han Eupe-Kamongo (Yes, white lungfish).

DarthLungFish
05-14-2006, 10:27 PM
:thumbsup: :) :D Thanks Michael, Big E and Roberto for your comments. He's in a 400 gallon right now. The set-up is so cool. I've got a wet-dry filter, two U.V's and 3 power filter 400s. The look is natural, white pool sand with a large piece of drift-wood as the center and plastic java plants all around. The lights are a corallife coral-set-up. The moon-lights looks so cool at night with the Albino Lungfish wishing in the back round. My girl-friend has gotten over the fact that I spent $600 for this fish, but we only live once. ENJOY LIFE!! :grinyes: AfricanMan is the MAN, :headbang2 very nice to work with and very much in my top five when it comes to buying top fish!! :clap Thanks again guys and I'll post pictures SOON!! :grinyes: I've been working like a dog these pass two weeks, 2 turn overs and having to work more hours to cover :swear:

Great lookin lung and a great price.I have seen alot of albino's for sale over the years but they were always over 1,000.00$
You said you have been waiting for over a year for it ?
I waited for over 43 years for my awesome 5 Australian lungfish's !
That is so great that you feel that way. I was 12 when I got my first fish and it was a young South America lungfish.Good luck.
