Any pics of the Marbled Knife in the tank? Unless I missed them.

The marble knife is not in this tank as it might get eaten. It's currently in a 120g and I let it grow a bit before adding it. Couldn't take pics of it as it hides inside the driftwood.
 
Okay here are some more shots of the Polypterus bichir lapradei "Guinea/Sankarani". This was caught on the border of Guinea and Sankarani. I would lean toward more on the Sankarani as I've seen many Polypterus bichir lapradei "Sankarani" that are more black to greyish black. There is one in Youtube that he calls Sankarani Guinea and it's also dark.

Awesome pic's as usual. Nice new editions.
If you do get a chance to get the marble knifefish i'd really like to see it. I've never heard of a marble yet.

Your probably have, it is the afer knife. They are pretty cool because they swim like an eel and not like your typical knife fish. They are very graceful, but get aweful big and aggressive!

Nice fish kingle you have quite the collection!
 
all of these are teaser pics! :nilly: in every pic youve posted, there is a fish in the background that id rather be looking at instead of the main fish in the pic.

nice, though!

Awesome additions. Tank looks a tad rammed tho lol

I moved out of my apartment and while moving my 275g tank cracked. They are now temporarily in a 180g tank and yes I feel bad for them as they are cramped in there. I'm still setting up the 375g tank at my parent's place. Just busy with work and x-mas stuff right now that's why I'm not unable to finish it. Hopefully by the 26th.
