Hey all,

as some of you know I recently bought some new bichirs, 3 of wich are supposed to be teugelsi. Well I made some pics and I want to ask you to count the lateral scales from the fish in the second pic or just enjoy the beauty of this fish :)

A lot of lateral scales!! Wow!! Awesome poly!! How many did you get? Three? Man i didn't know there were so many different types of polys...you definately have about 90% of the species though!! hahah! Those beasts are HUGE!!
 
Yeah there are a lot, I will tell how many I counted later. I got three yes. I haven't got 90%, I only got endlicheri endlicheri, endlicheri congicus and teugelsi. There 15 species or more species.

These fish are 18"-20".

Ok, so maybe not all of them, but you definately have the rarer ones!! You should get some palmas palmas eh? SEXAY FISH!
 
Hey Koen, Brilliant fish like always...i'm going to have to say these are my favourite of the polys (after seeing yours!)
 
If it is 15 different bichirs in world, u have 20% of them, cool :D
They are rly nice!

The palmas palmas would get eating with time by the teugelsi, endlicheri endlicheri or the congicus (probably the last), so I don't think that's a good idea.
