Lungfish Setup

[Atkin]

Hi,

Ive had my lung for about two years now but he has always been kept in rather plain tanks, I have huge issues with algae that ruins any interesting setups i create, however I am thinking of doing something different with the tank this time.

I was thinking of using sand or another type of substrate instead of stones or gravel and possibly adding some plants.

I was told he was a SAL when i worked at the aquatics but looking at the pics posted on here i am unsure now. He also lives with a golden severum and a largish oscar.

Any tips you guys could give me would be a huge help.

Cheers,

Atkin

I imagine that if hes living with tankmates peacefully he is a SAL, but i am having luck with a 18"+ WAL with a gibbiceps pleco and a fei-feng so you could have got a peaceful WAL?

I was thinking perhaps he is a WAL since he has very distinguished patterns and the pointed snout i have seen in WAL's

my digicam is elsewhere right now but if i can find it perhaps you guys could help me identify him

if he is a WAL it looks like thats the end of my south american system haha
