Any P. Endlicheri Congicus keepers here? I would like to see those who are keeping this species? Share experiences? size? data? history? etc. :)

Currently growing out a pair of Congicus now... hoping to ?? :rolleyes:

I've got one small (6 inch) Polypterus endlicheri congicus. It is currently housed with other, slightly larger 'upper jaw' bichirs. They seem to get along without incident. The P. e. congicus isn't as active as my P. senegalus or P. palmas polli but I do see more of it than I do of say my P. ornatipinnis, P. palmas buettikoferi, or P. weeksii. My 'congicus' is a bit of a finicky eater....he won't touch silversides and doesn't much like shrimp...but on the plus side he does eat Hikari Sinking Carnivore Pellets pretty regularly.
