Ornate Bichir thread..........

Aj, Ornates are better than sens..

No way bro...Senegals are way more active, and more easily accessable and keepable for beginners
Ornates have nicer markings, but you gotta love the "clean" look Senegals have...

 

[Cichla dude]

No sens are '' plain looking..
Plus ornates do better in ponds!

 

[Bottomfeeder]

You say plain, I say clean
I wouldn't trade my Sen for all the Ornates in the world

 

[Cichla dude]

Same here but vice versa..
i would never trade an ornate for all the sens in the world

I love my ornate! Best looking in my opinion. Got a few shots in my albums.

I do agree with AJ, though, I wouldn't trade my Sen for another Ornate. Sens are so active! Can't beat 'em.

Love my Sen
She's not so active right now, I need to add some PVC piping and flowerpots, etc...places to hide. Right now she just chills between the pottery ornament, terra cotta flowerpot, and barrel ornament...lol
I love how she perks up when there are a lot of people in the room! She swims up against the front pane of glass, scoping out the people... love fish with personality...even better when it's a Bichir
