Post a pic of your favorite bichir

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
It's really hard to pick between my favorite male moke, and my largest female rope:

Wow, both look very nice. How big is the moke? I would buy a lot more if they were a little cheaper.

Tough question that.
If it were choice of Bichir to show off, then It would be the Turkana PBB, Teug PO. Palmas etc.

But IMHO my 2 Bichirs that I watch the most and enjoy the most are without doubt My bigger Weeksii, and my 20" green Congi.
They are both my most active Bichirs, and they both have big fat heads!

Love this girl, want to get her a partner and try breed one day:

Nice. I have 3 weeksii right now and they're some of my favorite bichirs too. What's cool about them is they're heads are so big that they can suck up pellets like a vacuum cleaner and they don't even look like they're chewing on the pellets. They're about 7" right now.

So awesome, what do you feed him?

I've just been feeding him mostly Hikari pellets. I was giving him mini sinking cichlid gold but now I'm giving him Massivore. They go nuts for Massivore because of the strong smell I think.
 
My old favorite 20" Congicus that randomly died on me. :(

Thanks. Yeah, it hurts to see it dead. Never expected the death. The Congicus was strong and healthy, still eating fine the night before. Even updated pictures onto MFK the night before. :(
