I saw this at an LFS last night. I apologize for the picture quality, but all I had on me was my phone. I would have bought the bichir, but I was meeting someone for dinner. The label on the tank only said "Onrate [sic] bichir $20", but there were also senegals and albino senegals, in addition to actual ornates and three or so of this species.

Delhezis are highly sought after and rare, aren't they? What would be a reasonable price range for this bichir? It was about 3" long.

Nope...delhizis are more of a grey from my experience...
 
A better pic would help but they do resemble delhezis-Anne
 
The marking are very Del like. I have never really seen a very young juvi though so I cannot comment on color.
 
If you can get them for $20.00 each go for it -Anne
 
are they sometimes marked up as armoured bichir
i ask because i saw some today that looked just like that ????????????????
 
yup sometimes they are called armoured bichirs-Anne
