are the ornates the nicest looking? i seen a gold one but im not sure if it was the light or if there really is a gold one with black striping on it.
 
the ornates are very pretty when young, but tend to fade with time.

the gold with black stripe bichir you are reffering to is the p. buettikoferi. these are very nice. i am going to order one soon. many members have them and im sure they will share pics if you ask nicely :D
 
My favorite bichirs are endlicheris(Guinea). I have two that are great looking. The male has solid black coloring on his bottom jaw and throat. I will post some pics in the next couple of days.
 
delhezis are a fav of mine
 
endli endlis for me too, though i have a 2 fem ornates w/ my endlis ("tank for the big ones")

Do you have a picture? Sounds nice. I've never seen one before.
 
some P. endli endli and P. endli congicus with more 'yellow' would fit your description too, i suppose.
