Since when were there Gisela bichirs???? We’re they just newly discovered? I’ve never heard of them before
Polypterus sp. aff. "Congicus" aka Giselas bichir from Lake Tangikyika. Not much is known about them. Here's a photo to drool over :--)

Video caught in same lake. Likely a Giselas bichir as well.
They've been discovered before that. Just never been imported into the hobby until this year. We don't know for sure if its an actual congicus thus the name Polypterus sp. aff. "congicus" meaning unknown species resembling congicus. Need more studies done on them.Thanks krismos and Hao for enlightening me. It really does just seem like congicus to me, not another polypterus species. Like Hao stated only discovered in 2021 so no one really knows yet ?
