Thanks guys for the compliments. I try and have the best set-up, and the best environment for my bichirs possible. As for my tank here is a picture of it. It is 130 gallons and is around 6 ft long. I have a blue l.e.d light setup that is set on a timer and cuts on at night to simulate moonlight, and cuts off in the morning when the regular lights cut on. As of now my tank holds 13 bichirs, 1 ropefish, 2 needlenose gar (breeding pair), and 2 hujenta gars, and 1 very large very active snail! Here are pics of the other bichirs I have that I didn't get to show before.
Thanks, yeah I love the moonlight setup! If you're trying to get one I''d suggest looking for one on ebay. That's where I got mine from. They range from about $40-$65. Also they're l.e.d lights, so unlike basic lights they last forever. Be sure to post pics when you get it all setup! =)
These pics are all dodgy but heres my collection so far..
2 ornates
1 large delhezi
1 small delhezi
1 obese senegal
1 small longfin albino senegal
The small del and sen are in the mini grow out tank the rest are in my 5 foot tank... Im not buying any more unless I find a Endlicheri or other species.

I really envy your longfin albino senegal kramer! I am looking to find one of those myself. I think that I will be able to eventually, but it will take some time. Also nice bichirs jojo_nature!
