good to know. and it is a male. so two males (1 senegal and 1 ornate) and one female (senegal). Maybe ill get lucky and find a female ornate for cheap....
its actually larger than 6", i think ill pull it out this weekend and get an official measure, but i estimate it to be closer to 8" given its size when put up against fish i know the length of. But at what size is it best to sex at??? not that it much matter since i dont know if i would ever breed bichirs, but i always feel bad calling it a guy when its not, and vice versa.
