Polypterid Collection!

[Chi-Chi]

How much does the senegal costs in your country? It cost around S$10 to get one around 10" in Singapore and they are pretty common.

BTW, you have some very nice and well fed senegals!

That's a great deal! They're very cheap and common here as well---usually around $10 for a 3"-4" baby, while 10" ones go for $20-$30.

Thanks! B)

What do you feed your senegals.

Children.




Just joking, of course. I feed everyone in that tank the same mix of tilapia fillets, Massivore Delight, and market shrimp. For the topwater fish, I feed FD krill, bloodworms, and Food Sticks.

Remember that they are great jumpers thus the tank needs very secured covers. They are very active and unusually hardy so we can keep them for a long time!

I believe they are also not very choosy eaters.

Good point---the tank is almost airtight up on top, I carved the plastic to fit snugly.

All good news for us!

very nice collection..

Thanks, man.

Cool pic!

Do you know what your forum handle means in spanish?

I'll give you a hint in case you don't:

Mammals have mammaries, although this slang term mainly applies to mankinds, and it more than musically rhymes with tigolbitties, it means the same meaning.

Man those are some nice polys! My lil' Sen has quickly become one of my favorite fish and I will absolutely purchase more in the future.

That's awesome!

I always wondered if "Chi-Chi" meant anything, and I'm glad it means something as ridiculous as that .

It's the name of one of my piranhas.

Thanks for the help!

Thanks, bro! Out of all the bichirs I own, the senegals are still my favorites---what they lack in coloration and rarity, they more than make up for with their personalities. I love these ladies!
