I was just wondering if one sex tends to grow larger than the other, in anyone's experience?

I want max size bichirs, so that would become a factor when I pick new polys. :D :headbang2
 
Females tend to be slightly larger than males-Anne
 
My senegal pair are the same age (or at least they were the same size at purchase). She has grown 1/2" longer, but is easily double his girth. Of course she eats triple what he does too, so she's a bit on the plump side...:D

Cool thanks, that's what my gut was telling me. Pics of males always seem to be stocker and not as long as females. :thumbsup:
