My Bichir - Polypterus

[DEMNTD1]

Hi all,

New the this forum site. Just got me 2 Bichir - Polypterus. LFS sold as Weeksii and I think the second one is Ornatapinnis/Ornate.

Weeksii

Ornatapinnis

The Two of them

I hope I am correct in identifying the species of polypterus.....if mistaken then please let me know correct species.

I may also pick up a rope fish that is available at my LFS.

Thanks.

The first one looks like a short body ansorgii or a weird patterned endli.

 

[peewee]

Nice Polys and to the forum. Looks like you have an Endli and not a Weeksii.

Thats a great looking ornate!

 

[iloveoscars702]

weeksi looks like a cb endli with really odd patterns.

Very nice!


The bichir sold to you as a weeksii is actually an endlicheri endlicheri with unique markings.
