Polypterus senegalus "Platinum"

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
Oh hard to come by is an under-statement. The only Bichirs I have access to are Senegals Endlis and Delhezi. All captive bred. I always wanted a Mokele or other WC upper jaw species but impossible to get. Wish fish stores had Worldwide shipping .
Global fish co every once in a while gets them
 
Some recent shots of the Platinum squad

Random shots of platinum Senegals and other Senegals. 👍🏼 Strange that one of the platinum has gotten a little “gray” and less white. Will continue to observe that one over time.

Not sure if it's related, but I've noticed my platinums used to have that gray-white in their younger years. It eventually went away after 1-2 years of growing.

The thing is my platinums are already full grown. 11"-11.5".

Recently found myself a Longfin variant of the platinum senegalus! Been wanting one for sometime now. We’ll see how this one grows. Would be amazing to see it grow as big as my other regular Platinum Senegals. Hope to see them all together someday.
