So, I just got back from the MFK SoCal meet. Not only did I get a wonderful sunburn lol, some awesome pics, and meet cool people, but I was also lucky enough to come home with two cute little bichirs (my friend didn't want hers at all; he was too scary:screwy:). Thank you MFK for a great meet!

Senegal? I think.

The same kind?

They get along well... at least for now. Glen's the big one, and Snowdrop is the other.

Anyway, because I was not counting on bringing anything home, I wasn't really prepared for them. They're going to be in a small tank for only a few days. I'm doing my research now, but I just wanted to hear any advise you guys may have.

They had a long trip home, but they're active and happy. They didn't want to eat the blood worms I offered just yet but I figure that's normal. Their tank is tightly covered and they have a cave which they don't use at all. I think that's it so far...
 
Thanks. That's what I thought, but I didn't want to be wrong and look like too much of a noob.
 
Lucky!! They're not regular senegalus though, he was handing out long finned senegalus! :D :D

Look at the pectoral fins, they are much larger than normal, you have a long fin sen :D

I had my sister and my girl go get some free fish and I traded XCUTER two peacockbass, a hampala barb, and a baby front for one of those little LF sens :D

Really? lol I think I saw you trying to trade. Someone traded the delhezi to me for my veil-tailed oscar and my friend got the sen. I was looking for something discus/angel friendly to trade them for but gave up on that just cause you know... it was a MFK meet.

I'd love to keep the bichirs, but I don't know if I can realistically make the room for them. I'm trying hard, though. Worse comes to worse, I guess could trade the little guys or something.

Dude, I have congo tetras or boesemani rainbowfish I'm willing to trade for those bichirs!! :D

Yeah I was trying to trade away my hampala barb haha it's a cool fish, but I"m a polypterus guy.

My sister and the GF got peacock bass and a baby front, so I traded all those to XCUTER for a baby long fin senegal haha

Ok, if I can't get them in, you'll be first to know.:thumbsup:

Oh, I did look at the sen's fins again, it's long-finned for sure. Here's a close up that shows what looks like the start of feather-like extensions. These guys are boss.

Ok, give me time to think on it. This all hinges on whether or not I can make room lol. I'm not really here just to be all like "Na na na na naaa naaa.":ROFL: Although that would be pretty fun.
 
Waaaa.... what happened? This post disappeared and then came back?:nilly:
