Juvenile Polypterus delhezi

[Xeno]

Hey,
with the last delivery from Czech I´ve got a P.delhezi with about 6cm in length.
Here´s a short clip in which it tries to eat the first time after moving in

I´m keeping it in a 200l growout until it´s big enough to move into the 450l tank.

And of course I´m going to order 2-3 more

Very nicely patterned delhezi!

Nice! Regret selling mine they were extremely active and never hid

Nice bold pattern for sure.

Hey,
as contrasted with the small Delhezis my Senegalus has been fully grown in this clip I found on my PC.

Recorded in 2010.
I kept it in a 80gal tank with two Synodontis velifer and three Xenomystus nigri.

How big was it?

 

[Xeno]

Hey,
About 30cm!

Hey,
now three little Delhezis are swimming together in the growout tank.
