Are these lapradei?

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
Id say endli too and like hao says they look so thin they look like ropes,if they are rare in your area that get them but if not id wait for more healthier looking specimens.
Good luck

I wouldn't worry about them being so thin. I would be more worried about their cloudy eyes. Is that just the picture or are they like that in person as well?
 
i see nothing wrong with there eyes its just the flash
 
My guess is that they are 8" long at the moment. The LFS guy feeds them heartbeef and feeder fish once a week. No wonder they look underweight: they are likely underweight

I might do that but their price is way high: USD110.00 each but I can afford to buy them. I'll try to cut a deal for both next Saturday.

What is the usual length of this species? Can they be trained to eat prepared fish food?

Can they stay for a year or so in a tank with 30"L x 18"W footprint?

look really skinny idt that tank iz big enuff 2 last a yr 4 endlis they grow really fast with good feedn and get pretty big CB endli get 16-18" WC 20-24" i think im close at least:ROFL:
 
I'm thinking about getting them tomorrow. For what I understand they would do fairly well in a 4 footer for the time being. Am I right?

I saw pics of this species as adults and they look great. These two specimens at the LFS are starving.

Please Machine, if possible type in English. English is my second language and the chat text acronyms/shortage of words makes it hard for me to understand what you mean to say.

let me translate that:
"looks really skinny, i dont think that tank is big enough to last a year for endlis, they grow really fast with good feeding and get pretty big, captive bred endli get 16"-18", wild caught get 20"-24", i think im close at least :ROFL:"
