I feed my bichirs once a day. Idon't underfeed them but i don't over feed them. am I suposed to get them super fat or something?
some may disagree with me but I feed 2-3 times a day. I used to do daily water changes till I made a 24hr drip (btw this is deff the way to go imo)
I have had great growth out of all my polys but one, my very verystubbornn congicus.

no don't get them super fat man, i guess it's kinda subjective what fat is, but if it looks clearly obese, it's not healthy for the fish.
If you get them on meaty diet like shrimps and tilapia it will grow faster. Try doing waterchanges twice a week or up to 40%. If that's still not working you might have bichirs with bad genes.
