These are the last pics of my fish with a bare bottom tank. I added substrate, but I'm waiting for the water to get crystal clear. For now, here's an overdue update.

how big a tank do they need?
same goes with the super red severums.. to big for a 36"?
and the gold saums (sp?) how big do they get?

Nice Fish! I like the Bichirs best!

Thanks bro! Are you going to continue your collection of poly's too? You've got a good start ;)

Long-fin senegalus grow to the same size as regular ones, which is a max of about 14" or so. Min aquaria size should be a 40g breeder tank.

Sevs can reach 10", but for some reason that's rare in aquaria, with 8" being the norm. I wouldn't put a sev in a 36", rather a 55g min.

Gold saums (Aequidens sp. although mistakenly labled 'Aequidens rivulatus'), have the same requirements as Sevs.

HTH :thumbsup:
