Kewpie's Dragon Worm Growth Thread

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
I think scaping is great but we also have to keep in mind the fish. If we are talking about the big 3 upper jaws and lower jaws then less is more.

Big fish getting spooked = bigger injury.
 
Gotcha, I might have to wait to get anything shipped to me until it warms up a bit anyway. I have a couple of melon swords in with them and some valisneria floating. Frog bit stays a bit bigger than duckweed and doesn't multiply like crazy right? I was thinking about getting some of that too.
Frog bit is bigger then duck weed and is not as prolific.

o_O I ordered that fish from my LFS as a Palmas LOL Uh oh!!

The knuckleheads kept the poor thing in the bag all day long, I assumed they would have put it in one of their tanks. So when I picked it up I just wanted to get it home and safe in the tank, never really even had time to look at it.

When I first got it the only other bichir in with it was my albino sen. The sen put it in it's place even though it's 1/3rd of the size lol

My tank really isn't big enough for LJ's though :(

Most of the time you’ll see a nigerian lap mislabeled as palmas bichir, i bought 4 nigerian lap all mislabeled.

Bollocks. I wish I had the room for them, it's a very cool fish. I wonder if the LFS will take them back.
 
you would hope so. I mean it was misidentified on the suppliers part then they didn't catch it either. If you have a good relationship with them then anything is possible. Just tell them you aren't thinking of upgrading anytime soon and this is going to get to big, you don't want it to suffer or be unhappy.

I've had it less than two weeks and I'm in the LFS all of the time, we'll see.
