Sorry for the lack of action usually I get some barrel roles but they were already well fed as you can see lol and normally I feed them with tongs. So just take it as it is a quick vid of my bichir only tank. :popcorn:

90 gallon

All the gravel is gone now. Second endli is back from the QT tank ill have to get a vid when they are hungry.
Someone please let me know if I embedded the vids properly !
 
nice, how big is the tank that they are in?
 
Thanks ! 90 gallon. Has an AC110 , Eheim classic, fluval 405 and an 18 watt turbo twist UV hooked up to an aqua clear powerhead with the micron cartridge.
 
I shall have a much more interesting vid for you guys this weekend. Picking up two Lapradei (14") and a 8" sen. Should be a killer bichir only tank until I upgrade the tank to a 180 bichir only with even more Endli / and hopefully a congicus.
 
Thanks for sharing your vids and for getting me into Bichirs.:headbang2
 
that's a super clean tank. In fact it's even cleaner than mine.
 
Thanks for the comments guys :) Sucks I missed out on the lapradei we had a timing emergency back at home in Monterey. I had to leave before rehoming the bichirs :( But I got a bonus because we finished the job early (The new mirror maze on Cannery Row) At the clement.

The tank is kept immaculate I run 500 ml of purigen and the UV and a diatom every other day. No gravel anymore as my sen at some and is now in a hospital tank.

Current stock is

2- Endli 13" now and the other around 11"
1 Delhezi little guy hard to say his size...
1 Ornate closing in on a foot long.

Hopefully two lapradei when I get home. If I can't get them im gonna grab one more Endli and Delhezi. They will be out of the Q tank in 28 days :)

Thanks everyone !
