Del is almost 2 1/2” now, feeding two days straight and water change the third day paid off
Thats actually the smallest, the other three that was the same size are bigger, ive been alternating tilapia and carnivore sinking pellet, plus when i feed the roseline shark and bala sharks they eat the cichlid pellets too.
Thats why i skip feeding for the roseline shark and bala shatk when i skip the bichirs on feeding, then WC every 3 days 80%
those dels are adorable! polli is looking pretty big. Plants look fantastic as well. You have quite the green thumb.
So i rescued this poly from a coworkers nephew, they said that the kid bought the fish as dinosaur eel at a lfs so the kid was fasinated with the dinosaur name, they didnt know it was a predator fish and they put it in a 10g community tank.
You guys know what happens next and the dad of the kid didnt know anything about fish, so my coworker texted me and showed some pictures of it and i told them that the dinosaur eel is called a bichir/poly and it eats fish that can fit in its mouth, i told them that it can grow 7”-10” and it will need a bigger tank, so the dad decided to give it away and i said i can rehome it since i have those fish in my tank.
Now i have the poly, the poly was on a white sand so i didnt noticed the markings, at first i thought it was a senegal but looking at it in my tankits actually a palmas polli.
