$10 labeled as a Nigerian bichir. Is this correct?

He is about 1.5 inches.

Well, yes it is a Nigerian Lapradei.
Though being a captive breed, "Indonesian" Lapradei would be more fitting!

Nigerian bichir is another name for senegalus. Not a lapradei but a baby senegalus. A lap at that size should have darker brown stripes. Baby senegals do have stripes to when very young and in the pic it's starting to loose the stripes.

Head shape is certainly Senegalus. 1.5" is a very small size I did not think that they shipped that size (never seen any that small at LFS only start at 2.5-3". You pick up at a LFS or order?

I picked it up at an LFS. I looked closer with a tape measure, it is closer to 2"

It's not about who win or who lost. It's about educating others. I'm sure TGM just made a mistake. Everyone does.

Lost? You playing a game? Bit silly huh?

Is indeed a Senegalus, I was looking at a tiny image on my iPhone early morning, no coffee. Go figure.

I agree with the senegal ID. Head and body shape just like mine. On my lapradei the heads are huge in relation to the body. Almost 25% of the length is head.
