Newbie needs help to ID

[bangballs]

Hi all! I just got this lungfish today! It's looking healthy so far, and it accepts my hikari sinking pellets. It's about 9". Can anyone help identify which kind of lungfish it is? Thanks in advance! Anyway I'm from Singapore

That's a west african lungfish (protopterus annectens annectens)

Tilapia fish meat cut into bite size pieces will grow your annectens lungfish up fast. I feed my lungfish tilapia and raw shrimp. They seem to really like it .

You need to feed it more then just shrimp and filets. Either whole fish, or add some pellets. They don't eat filets in the wild. They need all of the nutrients of a whole fish.
