Polypterus Senegalus - Always Swimming?

[fahakapuffpuffpass]

my albino sen swam laps for the 1st couple days but doesn't do laps anymore but he swims with his reflection on the side constantly and if he isn't doing it my ropefish or teug are. My gold dust never did, neither does my ornate and my regular sen "Damn It" doesn't but he has his own quirks I agree with Hendre he will settle down a little but in my opinion he will stay a mover and shaker

Sounds like I have a mover on my hands - I've had him for about 4 months now and he's done this the whole time. I enjoy it! Adds life to the tank for sure.

Cocoa puffs right?

I saw your fahaka in your other thread I'm quite jealous. I have GSP's but they don't really do it for me.

I know I can't wait until I get a bigger tank for him so he can really start growing. He's like a little fish puppy right now.

My problem with GSP's is their size, though I have a seen a few big ones.

Yeah mine are growing real slow like. The brackish isn't tough to maintain but fresh would certainly be easier.

Puffers are too much work for me right now. Awesome fish and I hope to keep some eventually

My senegals are really busy, especially the wc one
