Finally got some pics worth sharing. Still nothing special.

Thanks, i hope he stays this light because the other one is so old and dark.
Congrats on coming pick up. How many polypterus do you have now?

Thanks, i do my best with the pics, the ornate is "retarded", he had bad luck with the previous owner and got stuck in the hose during water change, ever since he has had weird colour (dark back and light belly), slow growth rate and a crippled fin. But i like him and he is very predatory, swept up all the smaller fish in my tank the first night after i got him. :naughty:


I am going to add plenty of plants in a few weeks, and some driftwood to make them calm down a bit, the larger polli sometimes snaps and swims all over the place for a couple of minutes banging into the other ones causing some stress.

..I might add a GAFT with the plants...:naughty:
 
Thanks stump, i appreciate it.
