  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
oh no way?! I was just about to put them in with my Feeder goldfish tank lol. You’re positive? How can you tell the difference?
I’m positive. The head shape and fin shape. I have a wild caught as well so I’m familiar with their appearance ?. Here’s mine if you were curious

Sweet! Those look amazing. My favorite bichirs right up there with endlicheri. So if its cb i dont have to deworm right? And btw Exotic Aquarium where I got it from always has mishaps and super sweet deals like kelberi, azul, and orinoco bass for $20, etc.. If you wanna check it out. The only thing is a lot of the fish aren’t totally healthy, but if you can pick out the right ones and quarantine its such a good deal.

I would still quarantine and deworm if you see signs of illness. I’d probably add aquarium salt during quarantine. I live in NJ so kinda far lol but those sound like amazing deals! My lap was also mislabeled as a palmas when I got it so I only spent $40. But if I’m in the area def check it out!

But then again, Hao Hao and giseok jung giseok jung are way more experienced than any of us so I guess trust their answer! Either way grow it out and sooner than later we will find out what it is lol
