Nice! Taking a risk to I see. haha.that ornate is tiny. I did the same to my moke, buetti, x2 weeksi, retro and tueg. there doing good! how long did you have the lap for? looks dope!
 
Great shots, that tile is sharp and gives the tank a clean crisp look. Love the photo with the little ornate hanging with the big boys. It gives some scale to how massive your big polys are!
 
Nice update :)
thanks.

thanks. I was a bit worried with the ornates too. That's why I try not to let the bichirs miss too many meals. He's now 5" which is an inch bigger than when I got him. My wife picked that ornate so she would kill me if it get eaten. LoL I have two Nigerian laps. 13" and 22". I had them in 2010 then sold it to a member for a few yrs. I just recently got the big lap back at 5x the price I sold it.

thanks. The biggest brute is the pbb. he is really cranky during feeding. Here's the list.
Congicus x 2 18"
Endlis x 3 22", 12", and 7"
Laps x 2 22" and 12"
PBB 22.5"
Weeksii x2 6.5" and 8"
Teugelsi 9"
Ornate 5"
Ansorgii CB 13"

Love your lap, weeks and the last endli! :thumbsup: Thanks for sharing!
thanks. I love the last endli. I hope it grow into a beast.

Great looking tank as always.
thanks.
 
Why dont you use sand :3. Your bichirs gonna look way better! But still, a beast tank!
i don't like sand. I am sure the bichirs would look better in sand but I hate sand getting into my filters and decors. I also hate seeing algae and poops on the sand. I got a 10" sailfin pleco in there. With this bare bottom setup waterchange is so easy. I have a busy schedule and maintaining 4 tanks can take up time. I try to keep things as easy as possible for maintenance. Beside the bichirs I also have some tank busters in there that can stir up the sand into the filter.
