polypterus

Hey all! First off: it's been, oh, about two thousand years since I posted here, and I've missed you. Second, I was super excited to walk into the LFS the other day and spot a 7" lap sitting on the bottom of the oddball tank. He was labeled P. palmas, and priced at $75, so I got him for a...

I've been looking for one since may, I've called called or emailed 6 stores in my area and Toyin doesn't have any in a size smaller than 10 inches. Anyone know where to get one, preferably small and captive bred?

I bought a very pretty white polypterus and he had been with me for almost 4 month. He was very healthy and very active. He loves to swim around his tanks. Everything was normal yesterday. He eats and swim around normally like what he does everyday. Until today when i woke up, he was dead and i...

I have 7-8" Purple wolffish for $80 very healthy eats anything from floating to sinking pellets, shrimp, tilapia and blackworms. I also have 2x Senegal bichir 8-9" $70 for both and 40ea. You can buy all for 130 So-cal pick up only or could possibly deliver if you're around DTLA at your own cost.
