Today I brought home my new baby P. Delhezi! I've researched alot about this species and was really excited to get it mainly because he can actually live in my tanks for the rest of his life and not outgrow them. Now at the LFS the guy i asked told me they get 3 feet long and 14 inches around, :screwy: From all the articles i read and everything people on MFK have told me about the Delhezi, they only get 14", 18" at the most! that guy maybe was confused with a different species of Poly i think, any ill have his measurements and pictures uploaded tomorow!!! :grinno:
 
Congrats.. Hope U got One with nice patterns.. Enjoy the fish and welcome to the world of polypterus..!!:D
 
his stripes are very dark and vivid, but other than that he has the run of the mill gray on the top white on the bottom pattern, but i love his personality too! :)
 
Mayb u could post a pic soon.. here's a ppicture of mine.. :popcorn:

holy crap thats amazing!!!! the thing is i need to find the camera and its very early in the morning and the little guy is sleeping (meaning he's exploring everywhere) and i wouldnt wanna disturb him. your fish's fins are amazing!!! you got him to stick them out like that you must be a poly genie! :nilly:
 
Hit the lights.. They Will Feel A Little Startled.. And the fins come up.. its stays up for my endi and my ornate too.. i currently have 7 of these beautiful beasts.. 3 endi's 1 lap 1 del 1 ornate 1 sen..:D
My dream is an ansorgii.. but its really really rare in my country.. i would probably have to ship it.. jus so many of these beasts waiting to be kept..
 
i already have 7 of them now.. i have like so many more to get.. weeski ,teg ,ansorgii ,bichir bichir ,congi ,palmas. Jus naming a few.. 6 more.. haha.. all the rare type..
