Newest addition.. Delhezi!

That's good to hear! I'll have to see if I can find one locally. I have a 75g that I got for a steal on CL. It'll be a few more months before I can set it up but I feel a final stocking coming together for that tank..

Back on the topic of bichirs though, they sure grow fast at a young age. The Del was just over 3" when I got him 2 weeks. He was up against the glass today and he's almost pushing 4" already! Either that or I am just very bad at measuring haha

Been a minute since I've posted an update, so here's a recent pic of my Delhezi! Very happy with his growth, markings, and overall activity level. He's right around the 9" mark and has slowed in the past couple of months.
