The Chisembe A monster killer mormyrid

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
they're rare in captivity i supppose. or uncommon for sure. have u had one? i dream of having one one day, only if i have massive tanks.
 
These are awesome fish. Their brain mass to body weight is similar to a humans.

They do need lots of space and my tank is actually not big enough for them. If Big Rich converts his 60x30 indoor swimming pool into a pond/tank it would give these guys a proper setting.

their kinda boring in captivity:(

100% right

They would be boring if they are kept in a 4x2 tank just as humans kept in a 6x6 room would be.

To see this video and their speed and agility illustrates the need for extreme size tanks to properly house them.
