Beginners video guide to keeping Polypterus

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
Nice idea for the video!

My only points being:

Spelling (as in your description) is ALWAYS Bichir, never Bichers.
And pronunciation is "Po-Lip-ter-us"
And Endlicheri is pronounced: "End-Lick-Er-I(eye)".
As for Bichir, it is pronunciation is unknown for certain at present. Though thought to be "Bee-Sheer", coming from the then native (for Africa) word for "lash or Whip".
"Bee-sheer" being French phonetics, it was the French that discovered Polypterus.

Good to see people taking time and effort to make videos like yours to help new comers along.
Kudos to you.

Thanks for the the help. I thought people pronounced most of the name different ways. I did fix the spelling in the title:):)
