Update:
Everyone’s doing good but I’m a little worried about the congi. He went from eating like crazy to not eating at all. He’s lost a lot of weight and I don’t know what’s wrong with him. But I also know that sometimes bichirs can go for a long time without eating so I’m not super worried (yet)

Update:
I’m starting to worry about my congi.. I still haven’t seen him eat :/. If this continues then I’ll have to move him to a 40 breeder and feed him live. But other than that I got a few more bichirs! 2 WC laps 1 CB ansorgi and 1 WC ornate :)

Update:
So after not eating anything since May the congi decided to die. That too when I was out of town :/. Also I moved all the primitives to their own tank a few months ago because they would freak out everytime my tigrinus decided to move. Having their own tank has been good for them, they don't freak out as much and they have a new tankmate :) who thinks that he's one of them lol.

Thanks bro :). I tried everything to get that guy eating but nothing worked. He didn't eat from may :(. Thats the first bichir I've lost. And I used to be in the bay, we moved about 8 months ago to Portland :). Its a lot cheaper here (for now).
