Hoping to get a 375 gallon soon that will be packed full of upper jaw bichirs! :D Heres some photos.








 






The weeksii i just got is amazing, its mouth is larger than its body, i think that will change as it eats however. My ornate i just got in is also very skinny but she will just need to fatten up then i guess haha
 
Those are some good looking fish. What size is the tank you have them in now? Is the 375 going to be nothing but UJ's?
 
Thanks guys! The little guys are in a 55 gallon grow out tank, and the bigger ones are in a 180 gallon, the 375 will be probably a fire eel, geo. red head tapajo, and UJ bichirs.
 
My retropinnis and 2 buets came from jurassic aquatics. My ornate, weeksii, moke and palmas palmas are from aquatic daycare. My senegal, ropefish, dels and polli are from my LFS. Then my 8 tuegs are from fishonlinerus, he was nice to do business with as well. :D

Jurassic aquatics is supposed to get another shipment in soon and im going to try and snag a few more UJ for my big tank.

Where are you at in florida that had a polli? (you can PM me if you don't want it on open forum).
 
Im in SW florida by fort myers. The guy thought it was a weeksii so im not sure where he got it :P this is it. http://www.areefcenter.com/ The one on del prado usually has a better stock of bichirs. The fort myers one has stuff like gars and catfish. Still both of these stores put a lot more money into their SW stock, thats why i have to keep ordering online.
