20"+ Polypterus

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
your WC sen, might get huge!
It's a female so they get larger right?

The importer said they reach about 14", but I'm not sure if my tank is big enough to achieve that

It's not about the tank size that limits the fish's size. It'll be it's genetics, the food you give it,the water quality. 27"-28" Congicus was grown out in a 6'x2'. Seen some monster lungfish grown out in a smaller sized tank. Arapaimas as well.

Hao, bringing out the big guns!

They were all great of course but that 22" Dabola is off the charts
I personally thought the 21" sp. Dabola was off the chart. Color was insane! Hope to find another one like it one day.
