I try not to bash LFS folks or anyone for that matter so I'll refrain from my first thoughts but damn man he simply coulda said "ya know its a bichir not sure if its the exact type your looking for." He specifically was like "absolutely that's an ornate bichir" when I asked and acted offended I'd even question it.Damn, that’s a little pricy, it looks to be a captive bred sen based on the head shape and should’ve been around $6-10. I think if you give it a chance tho you’ll come to like it. I have a WC sen , weeksii, Delhezi and an Endlicheri and the sen by far has the most personality and is the most active. They’re probably the best eaters tooI think I might have mentioned it in my post after editing it. I don't remember exactly cause if I want something I buy it obviously within reason, so I don't remember exactly, but he charged me like between 18-24 I believe. Then I bought a little hiding log for 20 so he had somewhere to hide in the 55 grow out, which I mean I can still use that for future purposes but ya... Don't even want this fish now. Super bummed.
So, are the royal CK the common version of CK as well? At this rate that wouldn't surprise me...
WC is wild caught, there’s a difference in appearance between WC and captive sens, glad you’re keeping the sen, i did forget to mention that sens don’t get big enough to live with a CK. Captive sens get around 6-10”
Wilds are bigger, slimmer with a more triangular head. Captives are smaller, chubbier with a more blunt head. Color I don’t think changes based on WC or CB. I think it does based on location tho, mine is a WC from Nigeria.
