Its a senegalus

Sent from my DROID BIONIC using MonsterAquariaNetwork App
 
Yep, sen. I had one that pretty much quit growing at just under 8", but they will normally get from 10-12". They'll eat just about anything you offer; they like to hang out at the surface of the water when they are relatively young, but grow out of it after a while; they'll get along with any fish that won't fit in their mouths or eat them, and since they've been know to swallow gravel and die from it, it is bet to use substrate that is either too large to fit in their mouths, or small enough for them to pass (eg sand or very fine gravel).
 
okay guys thanks for the id and really wow thats a pretty big difference hah maybe i could tank the guy down to like 15 and how big do these guys get?
 
wow so even 15 would be alot! yeah there stuff there is really over priced and it pisses me off because the wife will give me one price and the guy will give me another one and he changed his price 3 times within like 5 mins they just pull prices out of thin air but thats pretty much they only place that ive seen that carries bichirs
 
Total ripoff, they goes for $2 here for a 3"
