Thank you all my friends. I am too busy for business for quite some time, and have no time to take pics for the fishes, also less log in MFK then before. Just to make sure you don't forget me.

You outdid yourself CDM! Beautiful shots! Makes me wish I still had my 180g, it was your photos that have inspired my hobby!

LOL, it's native in your blood, not my fault!!!

man...
your bichirs are to die for!
awesome pics as usual!
that congicus is a BEAST!
nice to see the con-endli is in with the big guys.
happy new year!

The con-endli stopped growing (or grow very slow) after moved in with other big guys, and color became plain for quite some time. It needs more time to get color back.

Very Very nice collection! I really want some monster polys as well! But never find them in my area....

You may look from some sponsors here on WW.

Very nice..... I miss my Congicus =-(

LOL, get a new one.

I believe you have the best collection of congicus outside of Japan.

Thank you my friend. I have another congicus that close to the length of the one on the pics, but, it's not as thick as the big one.

You seem to always amazed me with your photography skills in your photos. I'm so jealous of you right now for two reasons. You have kept an endli for 7 yrs and your pictures are so nice. I wish I have both. Happy holidays and maybe your collection grow in the new year.

It's 8 yrs now..... LOL.

great as usual, bro!
the body color of your rtgg is amazing, mine is dark and grey, only some red on the fins...

Could it be the diet that makes so??? This one is on feederfishes always.

Those are fighting words. He might have the best Endli collection but not sure about best bichir collection. There are still a lot of awesome bichir collectors outside of Japan.

There are also some crazy bichir collectors at China. I know one guy got few ansorgii and bichir bichir there (not to mention other bichirs). Actually, one importer here in TW does export expansive bichirs to China who said he got more income from China than from TW.

I have been told that this hobby in China rake in more money than most other countries. The fish store owner said people are more willing to spend the big bucks on fish in China. I didn't know Chinese were so into bichirs. I thought Chinese only had interested in datnoids and arowanas.

If only more of these Chinese hobbyists are in MFK.
