He will get big I seen them at 12-14 inches...I think they get bigger. The good thing is they are very slow growers.
They get up to 36" I believe but usually around 24". I think haos Godzilla is around 30". A 7" bichir shouldn't be in that 20g :sly: you should get a 6ft tank to grow him out. Even a 4ft would help for a while

if you switch to a darker color of sand or gravel it will bring his color out more
20 is way too small for just one. I'd suggest a 6 ft tank if you want multiple polys or a 4ft with more depth. I'd say 100g minimum for just the endli and having more in the same tank might be possible depending on species. My endli is 14" with a 10" Senegal and both are still growing.
