    Traded into where I work - can I get an ID?

    I'm torn between two species and would like anothe opinion. And I'm assuming WC from how slender the fish is vs my CB.

    Bichir Autopsy

    The other day I discovered one of my fish belly up on the bottom. Quite a shock as it was behaving normally the night before. The only change to my usual routine is treatment with levimasole recently due to seeing a bunch of white stringy poop in the tank. I don’t have a microscope so examining...

    What kind of bichir?

    Pet store said fathead. (Weeksii) But also had ansorgii and lapradai in the same tank. I think it is one of the later two. Doesn't look like a fathead to me. But maybe I'm wrong. Or maybe its something else entirely. Sorry for spelling and not great pictures. It does have the little tufts on...

    Tank mates for two tanks

    What's up everyone I'm new here so I'll do my best. I have two set ups I'm curious on. The first is a Half Banded Spiny Eel in a 75. I already have it scaped with rocks, driftwood, logs, and caves. The plants all feed from the water column so if uprooted I'll just replant them or let them float...

    polypeterus orni. hiding.

    I have kept a few polypterus species over the year. Right now I got 1 orni. left. I wane get some more but first I have to rehouse my bullheads. The orni. is hiding the whole time behind my background. Is this weird? And what can I do so that he comes more into vision?

    Bloody finlets

    I’ve noticed my albino Senegal with a few bloody finlets the past 2 times I’ve done a water change. I change about 75% of the water every 4ish days. None of the other polys or fish show open wounds. Wondering if the bloody finlets is from aggression (he’s the smallest poly) or potentially from...

    So I bought a one-eyed bichir

    Just got a one-eyed ornate about 7 inches. Didn't notice until I got home. I was thinking of returning it but the one-eye really adds character and now I kinda don't want to. Will this guy grow up normal? Any one kept a one-eyed before, if so, how was it different than normal bichirs? Really...
