Arrived DOA from Africa. The fish is actually supposed to be close to about 27 or 28 inches.
We have smaller sizes available for sale.

Are you going to save the skull? It would look cool. Maybe put the fish in a tub of those flesh eating beettles and it will clean if off nicely.
BTW, I have seen Polypterus for sale in picture in African fish markets. Any idea what they taste like? How are they usually cooked?

Fish is already long gone....i trashed it right after taking the photos.
Never tried cooking or eating Polypterus. I'm quite sure the flesh must be pretty tasty on the larger specimens because they command high prices in the local markets out there.
