a Long awaited UPGRADE

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
Don't mean to be rude here, but that Ornate us no where near the 20" mark!
At that length it would be a whole lot thicker than the heater in that photo.
Also the Weeksii looks under 11" too!

I can post pictures of my Bichirs of similar sizes for you to compare if you wish.
I suggest getting a better ruler!

he said it was an old pic, calm down. also, the pics of the bichirs are from his old 55 and not even in the 130.

nice tank/fish!
 
I am very calm thanks.
And I am talking about the first picture where it clearly states 130gallon.
You can see the Ornate in this photo, and owning many Bichirs at 20 plus inches, IMO that Ornate doesn't look near 20".

Like I said, I am very calm, just an observation.

Thanks for being just another run-of-the-mill, need to correct everyobdy because you are probobly right all the time (at least you think so), fish keeper.
Your input was definitely useful in this thread!

to those that enjoy just seeing photos and stories, I will hopefully have a photo thread soon and thanks to all for the feedback!

I like to be right all the time.. course I like a good clean debate first. LOL
Regardless whether you measured him with the centimeter or inch side of the ruler...
I think they look cool + setup too.

Your leaf fish eats well? Competing with those little/large devils down there?


Note: This message was typed with calm fingertips.. LOL
 
Good looking tank! :)

I agree. My 17"-18" Ornate is thick as a soda can if not very close.

Why so mad?

Know it all fish keeper I am not.
Know a lot about Bichirs? Yes, I believe I do.
I earned that from the amount of time and money I have dedicated to the study of said fish, in doing so have collected every known species, many of which over the 20" mark.
So if I see a fish that is said to be 20"+ and I (and most likely everyone else) can clearly see is nowhere near that, I will add my input.

It may be of no use to YOU, but it may well be of use to others, maybe people in the market for a large Ornate, or just another hobbyist interested.

So before spouting off about me "thinking I'm right", prove me wrong.

I have helped enough people coming to these boards looking for information on Bichirs, and I will speak my mind on the subject.

Thanks, TGM.
