Update: Im down to only two bowfin left. I gave the other two to a friend.

I recently moved the two to my empty 125 with a common pleco and two grass pickerel.

The bowfin have grown about an inch and a half and gained a lot of girth. uploadfromtaptalk1381853392847.jpguploadfromtaptalk1381853417477.jpguploadfromtaptalk1381853429239.jpg
One of the pickerel were caught with no tail fin. It appears he has been living that way for a while since it is completely healed. I named him Stubby. uploadfromtaptalk1381853439519.jpg

That would be cool. Maybe I'll catch some more this summer and give it a try!
