Yup i went to big al's missisagua too and saw 2 dels and one ornate. I wanted to get one del but I changed my mind!!! THEY ALSO SOLD POLY MOKEBELEMBE BUT THEY WERE SOLD OUT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!only 40 bucks!!!
Once you go bichir, you never go back! I agree they're not the most active fish but it's something about them that's really cool. Maybe it's the way they eat or something or how they look like dinosaur type fish.
You think you're addicted now...wait til your babies get big! Just awesome!!!! Saw an ornate in a LFS recently that was HUGE and one of the coolest fish I've ever seen. Absolutely can't wait til mine gets that big. Speaking of big...buy a congicus if you get a big enough tank (175+). Mine has grown faster than any bichir I've ever seen. It's nothing short of incredible to watch him grow!
