havent seen him bury himself yet.. he usually just hides under plants, etc. He's still only about 2 inches, trying to powerfeed and get him big.

i read that they can get up to 12 inches.. hoping he can get big soon, since he's in with 4 Sens

They're mostly 8 inches in size but 12 inches is something nice to achieve. Keep a watch on your bichirs as they may attempt to eat eels smaller than them.
